Monday 4th August

Last day + 2,3 and 4
Copenhagen to Carlisle.

This is It folks, our last blog covering the next 3 days!
Tremendous thunderstorm during the night and woke up to heavy rain. Packed bags, checked out and planned walk in the rain to visit Vor Frelsers Kirke.  Exciting experience at first as we walked down main shopping street again, but this time with a purpose. I needed an umbrella.


 Mission accomplished - Derek chose the cagoule and wet trousers option - arrived at the church to find the spiral tower closed owing to bad weather.


We did however enjoy the huge ornate 17th century organ supported by two elephants (Dead).

Back to hotel before we leave for our final meal ( as long as it costs less than our remaining 205 kroner) and our journey home.
We catch the train at 18.35 and arrive in Amsterdam tomorrow at 10.30.
Then quick visit to Rijksmuseum followed by bike ride to Ijmuiden to catch the Newcastle Ferry. Final train to Carlisle, shake hands, then find our own way home.
