Cheers from Copenhagen!
So we made it! The flight was great except for the ADHD child sitting next to me who didn't sit still for more then 2 minutes at a time! But, I still managed to finish my book, Feel - a biography about Robbie Williams...highly recommended if you like him - watch a movie, 21 - also recommended - and eat 2 meals! So overall not bad!
We arrived at our hotel at 8:30am and I resolved to stay awake all day so I could sleep through the night. I spent the day walking around exploring in a very cold and rainy city. It is a nice city, though I wouldn't say beautiful, but very typically European. Many time I found myself thinking I could be in Dublin, Galway, Milan, etc. I (of course) stopped in an Irish pub for a cider and discovered it was called Farrellys! Crazy! And I just had to try some Danish pastieries which were yummy! And lastly, I tracked down the Absolut Ice Bar! A whole bar (walls, stools, glasses, bar) made out of ice! It was very, very cool!
All the crew went out to a really nice "modern Danish cuisine" dinner and I actually tried something new! I fish called Sander which was delicious! I finally passed out around 11, though I am not sure how I was still standing at that point!
We boarded the ship today and it is gorgeous! This is going to be a great trip. Our host is a dream and free champagne and chocolates welcomed me to the room!
I have to run now to the lifeboat safety briefing! I will write more later.
This is a photo of me in the Ice Bar in Copenhagen.

Hey Irene,
With that outfit you have proven you have a good future as a mascot.
Keep the pictures coming.
