1st day
We arrived around 6pm. For dinner, we ate Mexican food. My quesadilla was reasonably good but it was overpriced. Everything in this city is overpriced. I bought twelve pints later at “7 Eleven” for around $35. It cost 177 Kronen. What a rip-off, but I didn’t have any other options. The sun sets around 10:30pm-11:00pm around here, so it is quite deceptive. When it set, I thought it was 8pm but I was sadly mistaken. Zach’s friend lived in Copenhagen for five years, so he told us the places to hang out. We were walking to a bar named “The Moose” when three girls rode up on their bikes. We asked them for directions and they told Brett to hop on. Next thing we know, Brett is long gone. Zach, Red, Kuhn and I continued to walk. There were no seats or space in “The Moose,” so we went to a close bar called “L.A. Bar.” We had a few drinks, which cost only 20 Kronen per pop. Soon, we moved on to a club called “Culture Box.” The music was good. We got back around 4 or 4:30am.
2nd day
This was one of the latest starting days so far this trip. Me, Red, and Zach woke up around 1:30pm and went to go eat and wander the town. I didn’t really want to see much of this dreary city. We attempted to go to the Viking museum but it is an hour train ride away. Since I like Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Television show but haven’t watched an episode for a couple years, I wanted to go to the museum. We paid 66 Kronen to enter. It was a pretty poorly done museum, and but I thought a few things were interesting. The video about the 8’8” man was interesting, and next to him was the world’s smallest human being. This Egyptian dwarf was roughly 18” tall. When we arrived back at the hotel, we played some poker.
Tonight we went back to the Moose bar; since we heard it was good on Tuesdays and Thursdays (Tonight was Thursday night). The drinks were reasonable and we stayed until about 4:30am. The sunrise occurs around 3pm, so it was already light out by the time I had left.
Before the group left for the train station, we went to the Carlsberg Factory. It was even better than the Heineken Experience. The tour was much more authentic, and the beers we received at the end were much better. My favorite types were the Elephant Beer, which was 7% alcohol, and their new beer called Jacobsen Extra, which is a whopping 12% alcohol. Jacobsen Extra is very smooth as well. Below is a picture of the gate to the Carlsberg Brewery:
