Copenhagen

The little lady who needs no introduction at all

 

A cruise ship that has the ability to set sail, no really, use the wind as auxiliary power - very cool

 

 

 

The famous old harbor promenade that can be seen in every travel film about Copenhagen

 

 

This man, a mime, sort of, had the entire square, soon jammed with people, in stitches. He barely moved, and had posed himself as a running man, late for work. He was a near static sculpture, but he did move, almost imperceptively. At one point a tiny little girl, maybe a year old, wandered into the circle to examine the can with the donations, and he could not break his act, other than ever so slowly remove his sunglasses (that took minutes), and move his eyes in her direction. By then she was squatting by the can and playing with the coins, oblivious to his being even alive. The audience roared and the little girl probably caused a spike in the donations to happen.

Who has not heard of the Tivoli Gardens, an amusement park that has been known around Europe since the days of WW 1
