Couldn't you postpone the meet until the Monday? Then I could get a flight out on Sunday and get back in time for work on Tuesday. HA! CPH and I have been missing each other desperately. Let me know if there's anything happening in January Claus (maybe around the 18th) and I'll see if I can wangle a weekend off.

Travel Tips for Copenhagen
Steeples Punctuate the Skyline
by grandmaR
There are a lot of interesting steeples and towers in Copenhagen. Sometimes it was hard to tell if they were religious or secular. The Town Hall has a tall tower and so does the railroad station. Sometimes hotels have towers on them. The Unicorn Church steeple (photo 5) is a very skinny steeple with inter-twined dragon tails. The Church of St. Nicholas has a pierced tower which was almost lost due to fire when the church was almost burned to the ground in 1795. The main building was torn down and only the solid tower remained. When the church was rebuilt, it was too costly to replace the steeple, so Carl Jacobsen financed its reconstruction in 1911. Today, Sct Nikolaj Church primarily hosts exhibitions of contemporary art.
The most intriguing steeple (which we could not get a good picture of from the bus - photos 3 and 4) was Our Saviour's Church which has a spiral staircase around the outside. The building was consecrated in 1696. The tower with its characteristic spiral steeple built by Laurits de Thurah was finished in 1752 when King Frederik V personally climbed up to the top of it.
Calsberg Horses!
by scbelle
Okay, this isn't really a tip, more of a story:
There was a young couple in front of us in line to go on tour of the Carlsberg Brewery. The tour is free, but the man at the counter asks where you are from for tracking traffic demographics. The couple said they were from Iceland, and the man says, "Oh, our horses are bigger than yours!" And everyone around chuckles...
So then we check in and say we're from the States, and the little man gets this forlorn look on his face before saying, "But not so large as the Budweiser horse!"
"Wonderful wonderful Copenhagen"
by chancay
I did a sightseeing bus tour first, and it´s worth to do that . You see all the special places like of course the Little Mermaid, the Tivoli, the government, the royal palace and a lot of more beautiful places, buildings, museums and so on. that funny song they played on the end of our tour.....wonderful wonderful Copenhagen....

by Shar
Walking through the city over the bridge and stumbing onto the unique world of Christiana, the squatters town where Amsterdam is alive and kicking (out of the bedroom - more into the gardening side of course). I got a boat tour thingy (whilst tryng to compose myself after a purchase or two from Christiana) around the canals. They explained the towns' history in about 5 languages (which was a crack in itself). I'm biased though - I love being on the water so they could have floated in the middle of the river for all I cared.

be there while there is a parade of some cultural event. There are many Jazz, Rock or classical concerts just infront the city hall or in Nehaven. Many talented actors or musicians perform in Storgata. Once there was a big parade of all the actors in the Aaida opera show.
