Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen

In this city of monuments, statues and fountains the air is redolent of salt air and herring.  Bicycles outnumber cars (by a lot) and everyone looks tall and blonde and fit.  We had travel snafus too numerous to mention getting the short distance from Malmo to Copenhagen.  Suffice it to say when the train breaks down and and you try to load hundreds of people onto buses it is not a smooth process.  We arrived late but still managed to rendevous with our airB&B host and are in a charming apartment looking out over red tiled roofs and cobblestone streets.  It's nice to have a kitchen and laundry facilities after a week in hotel rooms.
It was also lovely to have dinner last night at our friend Eva's house.  A home cooked spring meal of lamb, potatoes and new peas was a treat.  We talked and talked and finally took a bus and subway back to our place.  Public transportation here is awesome.  Today we did a lot of tourist sites; Tivoli, the Little Mermaid and walked past a lot of museums.  The high point though was taking a ferry boat down the Baltic  inlet that runs along the east coast of the city and were able to see many of the impressive architechtural sights both old and new.  The new ones include the national library and the new opera house, both stunning.
