Sadly this is my last day in Denmark in my last day on vacation. Tomorrow I will fly back to the United States via Washington DC.

This morning I got up and ate the chocolate muffins and orange juice I got from the supermarket a block away from the hotel. Breakfast at the hotel is the equivalent of 20 US dollars. So it makes sense to get breakfast on the go.

I decided to go to the top of the church spire of the church of our saviour. It was just a couple of subway stops away from my hotel. When I get off the subway exit the Spar was actually hidden from view behind buildings. But I did find my way there. as I was walking then I noticed a group of teenagers at the gate. I believe it was some type of school Field Trip. I thought to myself it is just my luck to have a roudy group of teenagers ahead of me when walking up a church spire.

The inside of the cathedral did not open until 11 am. Yet the church spire opened at 9: 30 am.

Going up the church Spire wad partially inside in partially outside. there is an older lady in front of me who told me to go ahead because she’s slow and has a bad leg.

Halfway Up the spire inside there is a organ display. Also in another part there is a animated film about the history of the church as told by a puffin. One version is in Danish and the other version is in English.

would you get outside there is a brief standing platform where you can take pictures before going up the stairs. The stairs get narrower and narrower. At the very top of the stairs just end and there is no viewing platform.

I managed to beat the teenage tour group to the top of the spire. They did not get there until well after I had started going back down.

Next I thought it would be a good idea to visit the Danish resistance Museum. this museum is not part of the Copenhagen card so I would not have been able to get in free. However I was willing to pay the price as I always enjoy World War II history. It was a subway ride in a bus ride away.

However once I arrived at my destination I saw it was under construction. as it turns out according to my Guidebook it had burned recently and was probably being rebuilt.

The Danish design Museum was the nearest Copenhagen card attraction nearby so I decided to go to it. It required that I checked my bag into a locker. Steph gave me a card for retrieval after doing the museum. I was also given a a metal pin (much like the “I Brought One” VBS pins from the 80s).

The museum itself had exhibits like an IKEA store. Interesting designs but generally not practical. There are also some historic exhibits from the 1800s. I took several pictures in then decided it was time to move on.

I stopped into the round down of the Frederick’s church to take more pictures. I did do a GoPro Video of it.

Remember Amalienborg from yesterday that I could not get in? Well I figured out where to buy tickets this time.

but before I bought tickets I decided to find out what all this Commotion was about with all the crowds gathered in one area. As it turns out it was the equivalent of the Danish changing of the guards. Seem to have much less pomp and circumstance than the British changing of the guard in London. I managed to get a a video of it of me trying to chase down with the guards are going in then being asked to back up as the guards were rounding a corner.

Next was the Royal Museum which really didn’t take up too much space. It mainly had paintings and personal items from the 18 in 1900s. and still I wonder if the Danish royal family ever goes through their own museums and wants their stuff back. Is it legally there’s or does it belong to the state?

Next episode of the house lights in a headed back toward the Domino’s Pizza which are headline share yesterday. I am very much a creature of habit. If I don’t have to think about what to eat then it’s probably best.

Luckily there was a different worker there than yesterday. Otherwise I think I would have been embarrassed to order the same exact thing that I ordered the day before.

as I sat down to eat my pizza and notice that the Guidebook said that they were City Hall Tower tours at 2 pm. Who is already 131 I got my pizza so I doubted that I would be able to make it. Even so I started heading that direction once I finished my pizza.

As usual with Google Maps I got turned around and couldn’t find my way there. Instead I found myself in Nyhavn which is the picturesque postcard view of Copenhagen. lots of people were by the canal taking selfies and pictures. It’s somewhat about tradition in Europe that if you get to a fenced in area that is historical couples will leave padlocks on the fence. Sure enough the repaired locks in this area. And I wonder if ever so often someone with a bolt cutter comes in and removes the locks.

I wandered around a bit and found myself in the National Museum of Denmark. as I bought my ticket they told me that it was going to be closing in 45 minutes. Also I can either choose to carry around my backpack in front of me or check it into a locker. After trying out carrying it in front of me I decided it was way too awkward enough and checked it into the free Locker.

I’m not a museum person and I don’t go around reading every little item on a Museum exhibit. This was the same case with this museum. However I did come to in section about the Caribbean and how Denmark sold what eventually became the US Virgin Islands to the US in 1912. Also came to an exhibit on Modern history which had a fairly recent computer and the PlayStation 2.

Next walked around again trying to think of a place where I want to eat. I ended up at Ripley’s Believe It or Not. even though I could easily gone to gatlinburg, a figure it might be interesting to see the Danes take on Ripley’s.

But in reality it was mostly like any other Ripley’s. It had the world’s tallest man; it had the world’s heaviest man at the time; hello lady who was very ugly; a man who had two irises in each eye; saw torture devices; lamps made out of popsicle sticks and churches made out of matchsticks. You know the usual Ripley’s Believe It or Not stuff.

Afterwards a little bit more souvenir shopping before eating at McDonald’s I’m going back to my hotel. Tomorrow I will fly back to the USA. Even though I’m sad the Muppet occasion as overwith, I’ll be glad to get home.
