Jonathan came back from his trip last night, so today we definitely wanted to go out and do something fun. And it was a beautiful day, too. First thing out of Mio's mouth was "let's go to the park!". Since it's been raining day after day, and we haven't been able to go to the park in a while, we incorporated her request into our plan.
We decided to explore the Christianhavn area today. Took the bus there, had a hotdog, and then headed to the park (playground). This was the first time going to this park, and it was like any other nice playground, but they had this wooden house with a rotating wheel in it, and you can walk/run on it just like a hamster! It took a while for Mio to get a hang of it, but she loved it.
Then we had lunch and we decided to go back to the Design Museum we went a couple of weeks ago, to look at something at the shop again. On our way, we had ice cream, and stopped by Frederikskirken (or the Marble Church), located right across the street from the Amalienborg palace where the royal family lives. It is a beautiful church with a symbolic big dome, but right now they are doing some restoration on the outside, and I couldn't get a good picture of it. We finally got to the museum and went straight to the shop. We didn't get anything after all, but we went to the garden and let the kids play. Just like everywhere else in Copenhagen, there were beautiful roses in full bloom. It's almost August and roses are blooming - definitely a different climate here.
We walked a lot today, and it was quite exhausting, but it was a fun day.
