Our final day dawned clear and beautiful. We set off first for the National museum. Our main goal was to see the children’s museum. It was still closed when we arrived so we wandered through the toy section. Ellie enjoyed seeing the doll houses on display. The Children’s museum was wonderful. They had it divided into 5 sections: a medieval area, a Viking area, an old-fashioned dress up/cooking area, schoolroom and a section that focused on Pakistani culture. Ellie and Kerstin both had a lot of fun playing at all of the exhibits. Kerstin is starting to try to pull up. She can’t make it yet but for the first time was able to stand up while holding on when I put her on her feet.
After grabbing a quick bite to eat we walked out toward the Mermaid Statute. On the way, Ellie found some ducks to feed, a park to play at and other statues to see. The statue of the Little Mermaid (based on the tale by Hans Christian Anderson) is in the Copenhagen Harbor. It was much smaller than I expected at 1.25 meters high.
Back at the airport the rain started falling. For a weekend that was supposed to be rainy, we had amazing luck with the weather. It never rained when we were out and about. It was another great trip that ended too quickly.
