Tivoli

Our hotel has free internet access, which is great. But to ensure you don't hog the computer, it's situated at a stand up shelf in the lobby, so I have to either type fast or write short.

We spent the afternoon at Tivoli. It's world famous and I believe that is because it's over 150 years old and located in the heart of a huge city. That alone would make it noteworthy. We walked around and discovered that it's the place to be if you are a grandparent and want to take the youngsters out for a day. There are lots of amusement rides from the traditional merry-to-round to a loop-de-loop roller coaster. We also walked by one restaurant after another. 37 in fact. We stopped to have a beverage but the S 10 price tag scared me off. We ended up paying the same when we had a glass of wine in the town square later. It's expensive here.

Tonight at 6:00 weøll be dining at a beautiful castle-like restaurant in Tivoli as part of our Rotary tour.

Speaking of Rotary, it's visible everywhere. There are many volunteer Rotarians at meeting places around Copenhagen, available behind the well-recognized "Bridging the World" banners and they are eager and delighted to assist you with anything. Around town visiting Rotarians are easily spotted because we all carry the grey and blue bag in which we were given our convention gifts. They make a great carrying bag and you see them everywhere.

So, off for a rest and more fun tonight!
