Still this time I wasn’t leaving via train it was an overnight ferry that takes a good old 16 hours to complete so it had an excitement factor that I was eager to explore.

A Video From Copenhagen
Everybody is making videos these days, so while I was in Copenhagen with Cailin from www.travelyourself.ca we made a video of what we got up too. I won’t bore you too much with words because I know your already pressing play on the video but I will say that it was good enough for the BBC Fast Track program to take a snippet of our video and broadcast it.
