Advantages: Relaxed and lovely Disadvantages: Expensive and not a huge amount to do
Gardens and the Little Mermaid is as far as it goes really but I always thought it looked a nice place and as we hadn't been to Scandinavia before it seemed a good opportunity.
Denmark is one of those annoying countries that have not moved to the Euro (we know who we are) so you will not be able to use up that little stash you've got tucked away in your sock drawer. The national currency is Danish Kroner (DK) and as a rough guide currently runs at 10DK to the pound, keep this in mind as most prices I quote will be in DK. Having said that, there are some places that will take Euros but you won't get away without plenty of local currency.

COPENHAGEN
My family and I had a lovely midweek winter break in Copenhagen, although there were a couple of hiccups (none the fault of Copenhagen itself) that I will come to later.
Copenhagen is both the largest city and capital of Denmark, a small country of 5.2 million people.Greater Copenhagen has a population of about 1.5 million people. The city is located on the island of Sealand (Zeeland) just across the Oresund Straight from Malmo, Sweden. A new bridge/tunnel was = completed in July 2000 linking those two countries.
It is the largest city in Scandinavia and is also the seat of Denmark's 179 member parliament (the Folketing).
Before I went to Copenhagen all I really knew about it was through the fairy stories of Hans Christian Anderson, I was very much looking forward to finding out much more.
We booked our ...
Advantages: Cheap Beer, location. Disadvantages: Lack of seating
OK, this is the second in a series of my favourite pubs in York. The Hansom Cab is one of the favourites because its a bit different.
The Cab is located in York City Centre. If you are on Parliament Street, aim for the Disney Store (near HSBC and the fountain). If you head west from the Disney Store, towards Coney Street, the Hansom Cab is on your left. Its a pretty small opening, so look carefully. By the way, if you reach Coffee Republic you came too far. Its next the the Nut Store. Anyway, thats enough direction.
The primary benefit of the Cab is the beer. For bitter drinkers, like me, you can get a pint of the local bitter, Sam Smith's. For £1.30. Thats as cheap as it gets in York. Its a bit rough, but excellent for the money. But thats not it. If anyone reading this has been to Austria, you may have tried Weissbier - its ...
