CPH - Part 1

It was a loooong ride from Geselkirchen to Copenhagen. Spent most of the day in and out of sleep between blowing through a book. Some of the other guys had a little more fun thanks to a successful stop at duty free right before crossing the border into Denmark.  I scored some soy milk and chocolate pudding (woot!) while Pontus, (our sound engineer, you may know better as guitarist for Hammerfall) stocked up on libations :) 

Copenhagen is my European home away from home so it's always nice to be back. Over the years I've gained many friends who live here. This particular visit gave me a chance to catch up with one I've seen only for a moment in the 12 years since we toured together. Anders, who I met thanks to the 2001 tour when Konkhra supported King Diamond, treated me to a home cooked meal - which is good for everyone since I get cranky when it's been too long without good food :)

Matt and I, along with Kuba decided to take the plunge and finally (after about a half dozen times in CPH) see Tivoli. It was pretty cool to walk through but we didn't go on any rides. While I could have been convinced, Matt is an even bigger wuss than me and Kuba didn't seem to care. Like a lot of amusement parks, it features themes from around the world - I was surprised by the amount of Asian influence. All in all, it was a cool spot to visit on a sunny day and I'm glad I finally checked it out.

Pontus!

Creepy statue in Tivoli!
