Christmas market in Copenhagen


At The Tivoli Garden in Copenhagen we experienced some traditional Christmas shopping. Although it was hard to get those true holiday feelings going when the quicksilver would not drop below freezing point it was still a very picturesque little trip.

We started off the day by having a smörgåsbord lunch with mostly just herring and other kinds of fish down in Nyhavn's Faergekro.


Since it was Joakim's mother's Birthday we had to give her a call which we did just after lunch!

After this little stop we walked along the boutiques in Magasin du Nord and on Ströget to reach Tivoli where we spent most of the evening in the wonderfully lit-up garden. Although we did not suffer from frost bites it was still pretty cold during night time and we thought it best to warm ourselves with some glögg, glühwein and Irish coffee.
