Spain.... ehmm... You do mean Sweden right?

Seriusly, when people ask us if the some 12h it took to get to Miami from Denmark was by car I don't know what to believe anymore

great shots, that city will be on my list to visit when I go to europe for the first time. I have about a year and a half before it happens.

I visited Copenhagen this summer and I took some pictures. Unfortunately, I don't remember the names of the building in these pictures. How bad was my memory? I think you'd find some of these are from Amsterdam, though for the life of me I have problems telling them apart.

Copenhagen and summer is such a neat mix! Very nice capture of the city, is any of the pics taken during The Big Meet last summer? I recognize some of the views

This one is of St. Nikolaj's Church ( it's now a cultural museum, not a church anymore )

This one is one is of Hotel D'angleterre

This one is of the City Hall Square seen from the side...

And finally we have a picture of Kongen's Have ( the King's Garden ) located next to Rosenborg Castle ( I used to guard the crown jewles there )

/which IMO makes it spring, not summer. It ain't summer unless you can wear just a T-shirt and not feel chilly til after sunset.

Wow these are awesome shots! Now I really can't wait to get there!

That would be Fredeiksberg Have ( Park ) it's located fairly close to Frederiksberg Metro station in the district of ( yep you guessed it ) Frederiksberg

You'll also find Copenhagen Zoo in that park... it's by far my favorite park in CPH, especially in spring!

Here's a few from last tuesday...

Gotta love global warming - I honestly haven't seen a cloud in 8 days!

More can be found on SSC where I have an ongoing photoblog...

I recommend Vor Frelser Kirke. It's close to Christiania.
