We flew into Copenhagen airport on Sat, Nov 14th. Very cool to be in yet another country: Denmark!
We took this world famous combination tunnel/bridge from Denmark to Sweden. Half of it is a tunnel under the water, to an island in the middle, and then it comes up from below and becomes an impressive bridge the rest of the way across to Sweden. We had arrived around 4pm, but it was rainy and the sun was down before we started across, so we couldn't get any good pics of the bridge. I did get this cool shot in the tunnel though.
The next day, we walked around the city. This is one of the classic city squares, found all over Europe. The fountain, the architecture, always interesting things to see.
We went to a castle, complete with moat, and found some things that shocked us.
As we crossed the bridge to enter the castle, we looked up and saw this sign:
We were like "What?!?", but then we looked around and realized what was going on...
A special exhibition, honoring Nelson Mandela, included the re-creation of some signs of a past time.
It went so far as to even exclude us...
It took us back in time, and helped us feel what it must have been like to be "unwanted".
