little mermaid

Have seen the Little Mermaid - we walked to see if one rainy day. All my sister said was - we walking all that way just to see this!! But I liked it and it is one of the important things of Copenhagen.

There is the changing of the guards at the palace.

I thought the little mermaid had relocated to Shanghai as part of the World Expo from 1 May until 31 Oct?!!

Yes, we SIXTY YEAR OLDS actually manage to enjoy Tivoli!!!!

Little mermaid is in Shanghai till probably November. Her "sister" - the copy that was kept in the family - is on display in Tivoli gardens.

We are going in August, and I have already a list of 1,000,000 museums to visit :)

Everybody recommends canal tours.

Send e-mail to that website in Sandy's post, they will send you a free map in the mail.
