Scandinavia: Denmark, Sweden, Norway » Copenhagen
We spent the first and last day of our trip in Copenhagen. On the first day, we spent half a day on the walking tour described by Lonely Planet (excellent) and then visited the National Museum. The Viking exhibit in the National Museum is well worth the visit. On the last day, we went to the Statens Museum for Kunst to see their collection of paintings; we didn't enjoy the art collection in this museum very much but at least it was free on the Wednesday that we visited. We also went to the Royal Library but there wasn't very much to see or do there. As usual, Lonely Planet was wrong with a bunch of museum times and prices, and we learnt to always pick up the latest tourist brochures from the tourist office as soon as we arrived at a new place.
