Cruise reviews of our vacation on the Oosterdam
Day 13 - Copenhagen Denmark - The Cruise is over.
We
arrive in the morning in Copenhagen, checked our bags into the Hilton, and set
off by train for down town. We just walked around to see what there was to
see. We checked out the sweater shop we heard about on the ship, ate a hot
dog from a street vendor, visited Tivoli gardens, made reservations for dinner
at a restaurant in Tivoli gardens, and returned to the hotel to check in and
freshen up before returning to Tivoli for dinner.

We and our luggage are transported to the airport. All we did
was put our luggage with the appropriate tags attached in the hallway last
night. It found it's own way to the airport. |
![airport has a walkway to the Hilton](images/copenhagin1_009_small.jpg)
The airport has a walkway to the Hilton where we spent the night, and
links to the train station where we could easily catch a train to down
town Copenhagen. |

The Hilton, only 3 years old, but it seemed to me to be only 3 weeks
old. Very nice.
