Day 17- Last day in Copenhagen


Unfortunately the wifi in the hotel has had issues for the last couple of days and my day 17 post vanished into the internet vortex so I'm rewriting it on the way to work this morning.
Started the day in Norrebro again, we liked the vibe here and we wanted to check out the shops since all things shut down on the weekend. We walked through the parks again stopping to feed the ducks and the swans, one swan scared the bejesus out of us!



First we checked the antique shops for the most part they had stuff that didn't suit our taste with the exception of some mid century mod furniture, really overpriced and we didn't want to ship anything. Next we hit a shoe store that was a bust, lots of comfort shoes and the apotek where we grilled the chemist for everything we can't get in the states, the guy was super helpful.




Next we went into Goggle, another shoe store, strange name for a place that sells shoes. I keep wanting to call it google. They had reallly nice shoes here, poor Debra did not have any luck with shoes. I got lucky and the shoes I liked, a pair of suede grey granny shoes fit like a glove and the price was right!


Time to eat! the favorite past-time of this team. We ate at Beatroot, they had a 3 part mixed plate, I would love to say it's a deal but that's hard to come by in Copenhagen, but you can say it's a deal in Copenhagen about $16 usd.


Meatballs, hummus, and artichoke chickpea salad. Debra had a delish creamy artichoke in her mix.






After our meal we walked up to the big park, Faelledparken, in Osterbro. We hung out under a big shady tree until we realized we should get going back to the hotel and start packing.


We jumped on the 3a bus and hopped off at Vesterbrogade and walked the rest of the way back.


A couple of blocks from the bus stop there was a museum with this neat model of the city of what it looked like in Medieval times. Two pigeons were hanging out near the moat and it look like a Godizilla movie.


We got back to the hotel pack for an hour, then went for our last meal in Copenhagen at
Biomio. I we ate there the previous two nights but it's tasty and we knew it wouldn't make us sick to our stomachs. So long Copenhagen.
