Copenhagen, Denmark

Our cruise ended in Copenhagen, Denmark. We opted to stay one night to squeeze in a bit of the city before heading home from our epic vacation. However, one day in Copenhagen is not sufficient!

I am a fan of Scandinavian design, so a top priority for me was the Design Museum. It was filled with fascinating displays and artwork. 

Aside from the Design Museum, we had planned to do a bike food tour. However, the weather forecast called for strong winds and rain. That sounded miserable, so we bailed on the tour. Instead, we visited the National Museum of Denmark where we started our visit off with lunch in their restaurant. They specialize in the famous open-faced sandwiches. My roast beef sandwich was way better than I was expecting and quite satisfying. If I remember correctly, Charles has the salmon. 

The museum was extensive and had a lot of interesting displays. It made for a good rainy day activity.

Our hotel, Coco Hotel, was lovely! They are part of a food collective and gave a fantastic recommendation for pizza from one of their partner restaurants. They even had arancini which made my quarter Sicilian heart happy. We ordered take away and cozied up in our hotel room and relaxed after a long vacation with lots of sightseeing. It was a bummer not to see more of Copenhagen, but it just means we will have to return one day.
