Our Long Awaited Return

Now we're sure you've all been missing us lots, so we've decided to come back so that you can all tell us how much. What have we done since our last blog you ask, basically Copenhagen, which has been the least busy stop of our trip due to the fact that its the only place where prices are higher than the UK, and so we can't really afford to do anything. This means we've spent most of our time cooking pasta, (with onion, tomato puree and cheap cheese), which even I am now sick of, but is all we could afford (and even then only by buying onions in bulk). Oh, and for the record cheap horrible cheese here costs about the same as cheese in England. Although we have managed to save up enough money to go on a bus tour of the city seeing all the major sites and to buy an unlimited ride ticket to the Tivoli Gardens (just not quite enough to buy an entrance ticket aswell but as usual our powers of persuassion have been endlessly useful). hahaha, we were discussing today how cheeky we've been at certain points on this trip.. more of these stories when we get home... not long to wait now ;)
the tivoli gardens were awesome, definitely the highlight of copenhagen! And definitely worth not paying to get into. Lol. we are very sad to be leaving, it seems like ages since we wrote the first blog! we have decided there are far cooler places to be than England. Yes, we're not entirely sure Copenhagen is one of them (although Tivoli may swing it) but there are definatly much cooler places, e.g. Paris, Sete, Rome, Naples, Venice, Bolzano, Innsbruck train station, Ljubliana, Salzburg, Vienna, Krakow, Zilina (well the like 3 streets we saw), Prague and Berlin. And of course the many places in Italy we plan to visit next summer.
And of course the tour of the City was quite cool. We saw like all the big places by bus, Little Mermaid, the changing of the Guards (one of whom really freaked out when I walked behind him!), etc. then saw many of them again from the boat, (little mermaid etc.). All the guide books said she was "disappointingly little" but I don't get it, she's life sized, which for a statue named "LITTLE mermaid" is I'd have thought is the biggest you can expect.
well thats about it from us, for the last time this trip, a fond farewell! but this wont be the last blog you get from us! thanks for reading. lots of love dani and scott xxxxxxxxxx
