Thanks Anna. My main goal in life is to have a zero bank account and maxed out credit cards on the day I die.

Gee, I already have achieved that goal of Zero. Not planning on dying anytime soon. Now what do I do?

Of course I'm a Charger's Fan! Win or lose I root for the home team. Black's Beach! Did ya go au natural or keep your clothes on? We went there a few times and oh the things we saw.

San Diego is my all time favorite place to live. Near everything, 1/2 hour to Vegas by plane, beach, mountains, fun stuff to do all the time, and the weather is nearly perfect.

Funny, you moved out just as I was moving back. I got back here (after 9 years away) in July of 1978. Probably passed you on the freeway.

Wow, we really did pass each other around town! I was at the Town and County many times for various 'events'.

Yeah, the stairs to Black's Beach were brand new when I attempted the climb. I made it OK, but some poor man (well overweight) collapsed half way up and we all rushed to aid him. I was an EMT for a few years and had to assist. Paramedics got there soon after.

Oh and that plane crash, so awful. My neighbor and I watched it on TV after we heard something like a sonic boom. I live about 10 minutes South of there. We were just complaining about 'nothing happening, bored bored, etc.) and then it happened. No more complaining for me.

Hope that awesome vacation of yours is loads of fun. Farthest I got from here is Fiji and that was a scary trip.

I don't live in Copenhagen, but I do live in Denmark. If you're looking for good traditionel Danish food, then try Ida Davidsen's food store. And be sure to visit a place on Amager, the island just outside Copenhagen, called Bryggen. It is a whole new part of the city. If you'd like you can go on harbour tour on a boat to learn something about the history of Copenhagen.

If you're going to Bryggen, try catching the Københavns Havnebad (The harbour bath of Copenhagen). Be sure to visit of the many many bookshops and bookkeepers in Copenhagen. Downtown Copenhagen there's a bookstore that has a really nice ambience, it is kept in the old style.

You can also visit and enjoy a good cake and some nice coffee at Lagkagehuset and maybe buy some good tea at Perch's teashop.

Copenhagen has a nice Metro and subway-system (although the subways called S-trains are above the ground).
Thanks Karsten. We will be in Coppenhagen, Stickholm and Helsinki for only one day each (8 hours) but the ship will spend two day in St. Petersberg. I will do a bit more research on your suggestions.
Thank You again for taking the time to provide such valuable information.

I've tried not to direct you too much towards the traditionel tourists attraction, but more to places where you can get a taste! of the food, the people, the places and the city.

Will you be staying in Copenhagen for more than one day, because this really also has an influence on what you're going to have time to see and which places you'll be able to visit.

OMG! Gordon, I'd not thought of 'That Place' in years. My friend and I used to go there every weekend and look for men. Ha. I remember the night some creepy guy sent me a drink, which I pretended to drink but was panicked it might have something weird in it. I went to the restroom and scooted out the door before he noticed I was gone. Never went back. Arraaaghhh! Amazing. We actually probably did pass each other and never knew it.
