New years in Denmark

On the 28th of December 2013, we started our journey from Austria to Denmark. To get to Denmark we had to drive through Germany in Sophie's families campervan. We ended up picking up a few young girls who were hitchhiking from Belgium to Berlin. From Germany we went by a ferry to Denmark. 

Monday the 30th Sophie and I went on a sightseeing trip to Copenhagen. Luckily she only lives 40 minutes from the city. We started off walking down one of the longest shopping streets in the World, "Strøget". And afterwards we went to a famous part of Copenhagen called "Nyhavn".

New Years Eve - For news years eve, we went to Sophie's family friends and had a nice Three Course dinner. Afterwards Sophie and I rode our bikes to one of her classmates party. We had lots of fun! 





Yesterday (Wednesday) Sophie and I decided to visit Helsingør and Sweden. In Helsingør we stopped by a castle called "Kronborg" where we had a look around. Shakespare's play Hamlet was set in this castle. Afterwards we took the ferry to Sweden, and it only took 20 minutes! We had lunch there and just looked around Helsingborg.
