Rosenborg Castle and Tivoli

Today we started off the day with a coffee and croissants. We then headed to Rosenborg Castle to wander around and see the Queen's jewels. The castle was beautiful and everything was SO OLD! 

Wish I had these jewels running in my family! ;)






We also got to take a peek at the thrones of the King (1665) and Queen (1731).  They were guarded by three silver lions from 1670. 


We then went back to Stroget street for some more shopping! We ate lunch at a great Danish restaurant and had some of the best open faced sandwiches in Copenhagen! (Smorrebrod) 


Then back to more wandering and shopping! We took a break in an Irish pub for some Irish coffee :)

After that we headed to Tivoli! It is the amusement park in Copenhagen and is currently decorated with Halloween zombies and pumpkins!



Oh yeah...and got to meet Hans Christian Anderson! ;)


It was a little chilly today so we decided to do the canal tour tomorrow. We will also be stopping by another palace and Christiania! The hippie community! Ha!
