  • Copenhagen Day Trips – Helsingør

    Copenhagen Day Trips – Helsingør

    From Copenhagen I was able to catch a train about 50km north up the coast of Øresund (the Strait) to Helsingør, a town of around 63,000. On the eastern most point, closest to Sweden, is Kronborg Castle.

    12,972 steps

    The morning started out with a walk around the outside of Trinity College looking for a coffee, and ended at The Little Museum of Dublin opposite St Stephen’s Green (It has since moved).

  • Copenhagen (Day)

    Copenhagen (Day)

    I flew directly from Trondheim to Copenhagen, my first flight after a lot of trains. I think my taxi from the hotel to the airport cost more than the flight, the flight wasn’t cheap, but the taxi was exorbitant.

    I got a train from the airport to a station close to the hotel and walked the rest of the way. It is a lot easier to wheel a suitcase along streets that aren’t covered in snow. It was not warm, but it was a lot warmer than snow-covered Norway.

    Dinner on the first night was a ramen place just over the road from the hotel. I got crispy chicken and a bowl of ramen, I think with a drink it would have been close to $50AUD.

  • Going for a drive

    Going for a drive

    I am not sure why, but for some reason there were basically no rental cars available in Trondheim. I rang at least 3 places who all said they were booked out before getting a call back from the rental place attached to the hotel I was staying at. They managed to find me a car as long as I was able to pick up and return it on the same day. Not a problem, I just want to go out and back in a day.

  • Which camera?

    I’ve had this blog post in my head for a little while. I have a bunch of different cameras that are great in different scenarios. I don’t think any of them are ‘better’ than any other, they are all different. They have different capabilities. Some are better at sports, some are better in low light. Some weigh over a kilogram, some fit in a pocket.
