Day #276

Friday, June 19

Copenhagen, yeah! My two friends and I took a train to the Frankfurt airport around 9am, then (after figuring out those darn electronic ticket things and having our gate changed one we finally got close to the depths of the airport) boarded our plane at noon! I pretty much just read Harry Potter the entire ride, as per usual. And snapped this classic plane picture.


We landed a little after 1, and got to our Airbnb around 3, leaving plenty of time for exploring the rest of the day! Our Airbnb was a super adorable studio apartment with a balcony that overlooked the sunsets at night. Speaking of sunsets, we were in Copenhagen during the longest day of the year- over 17 and a half hours of daylight! Funnily enough, I was pretty far north for the winter solstice as well, and enjoyed 6 splendid hours of sunlight while traversing the Scottish highlands. 

We explored Trivoli Park, which is kind of like Epcot in Disney Land (World? I mean the one in Florida) with rides and food from different countries and, most importantly, AN EPIC PLAYGROUND. 



The coolest part? On Friday nights in the summer, Trivoli Park puts on concerts free with the entrance fee to the park. So, for roughly $15, we got hours of culture, food, rides, playgrounds, and JESSIS J LIVE IN CONCERT. If you don't know who Jessie J is, go look up her acoustic cover of "Bang Bang" on YouTube. Even if you don't like the song, you gotta admit she is extremely talented and has such a versatile voice. Who would have thought we'd see her live in concert in Copenhagen? What??Like how does this even happen???



Very tired but extremely happy, we headed back to our Airbnb and slept for days. 

That's a joke, I promise we didn't waste all of our time in Copenhagen sleeping.
