July 1 - Sakskobing to Copenhagen

Last day of the tour - 125 km into Copenhagen.

First photo - this is from the top of our highest hill - the bridge at Orhoved











A very nice bonus today.  Klaus, who was on our South America ride (more correctly, we were with him), met us in Sakskobing yesterday and invited the South American crowd for coffee & Danish at his house in
Vordingborg.  A very nice visit !  Here we are getting ready to go - that's Klaus' wife Helle.

 Thatched roofs - I've seen this a couple of times - they thatch the peak and then hold it down with wood pieces. 












The outskirts of Copenhagen.  It is supposed to be the most bicycle friendly city in Europe.  They even provide handrails to hold onto while you waiting for a stop light.  Here, a local is demonstrating.







 We're there - our hotel in Copenhagen.












I'm there!!!














We're right on the river - one of the canals nearby.  There are some really swish boats here!

This is actually a time of high activity for some in the group, as they need to pack up their cycles and head out in the morning.

Since I have time I hose myself down (ie. shower) and head out for a walk before dinner.   Here is the Amalienborg Palace.








The statue in the square in front of the palace.














Our "Last Supper' together








Evening light on a building.

It's Monday now - I told you this would be late.

Today's missions:  
-Clean up my junk!!!
-Walk about town
-Suss out some shopping
-Plan a cycle trip for tomorrow.  EH?  A group of us are considering a 108 km circuit to Kronborg Castle (inspired Hamlet), Fredenborg Palace (the summer palace) and back....    Maybe some of us got too much sun yesterday!

Will try to put more photos in tonight.
