Copenhagen Adventure

We went to Copenhagen for a Microsoft Summit and got a day of sightseeing on Saturday. Our Plaza hotel was next to the main train station in the city. So I got pics for my dad...



We took several trains throughout the countryside. This was one of the old moss covered train stations along our route.


We went to Fredricksburg Slot, a castle in Hillerod.



It was even surrounded by a moat...


Here's a pic for mom, from the many curios inside filled with treasures.


It was a fun castle tour. We were free to explore the place. We saw the dining hall, the bedrooms, the sitting rooms, the great room, and the chapel...


Loved the red of the stained glass windows.


One of my favorite things in walking around these old buildings, is hearing the creaking of the old hardwood floors, and imagining life back when the floors didn't creak so much. And the other thing I love, is looking out the windows that distort the image outside and give a somewhat artistic view.
