Our Weekend Trip...

...was great fun! We stayed at the Hilton Malmö City and kept ourselves busy walking around the city, ate fabulous food and made a trip to the casino. On Saturday, we took the train over to Copenhagen, Denmark where we went on a guided tour of the city, made a visit to Christiania (shit, Venice Beach is nothing compared to these damn tree huggers :)), had fun at the famous Tivoli (an amusement park in the middle of the city), ate lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe... mm, I'm sure I'm forgetting some stuff but let's put it this way - we kept ourselves busy the entire weekend. My feet were barking after all the walking. We were so lucky as we had BEAUTIFUL weather the whole time... well, as we were driving home the rain came but that was ok.

Below: Just made it to Malmö. We stopped at the West Harbour where we strolled around and enjoyed some breakfast.

Below: Beer time & a performance (it was a festival in Malmö at the same time as we were there, so it was crazy busy with LOTS of people everywhere).


Below: In Denmark, entering Christiania. This was an experience, for sure...


Below: Having a good time at the Tivoli, Miss Hazel & I went on some rides... :)



Below: The beautiful scenery of the Copenhagen Harbour. Walked the famous street called Ströget to Nyhavn.

I can add that my dad managed to stay out of the ER while we were away (thank god) and the dogs behaved. We had a great & wonderful weekend trip but I always miss my furry babies a lot, so it is nice being back home with them again. :)
