Today, we arrrived in Copenhagen. We took a 1.5-hour boat ride through the canals of Copenhagen, Denmark. This is my second time doing this ride. It was my sons' first time in Copehagen, so I thought they would enjoy this. The boat started in Nyhavn, which is probably the most famous part of the city. This is where all of the colorful buildings are along the canal. The boat took us around Inderhavnen, the inner harbor of the city, and along several of its canals. We saw the famous Little Mermaid statue, the Danish Royal Yacht Dannebrog, and various historic Cold-War-era ships. The canals were full of a variety of interesting boats, both old and new. Copenhagen's relatively few canals are quite similar in appearance to Amsterdam's.
