by Philippa Gosine

This morning we had an early start, with breakfast starting at 6:30am. We then took a city bus into Copenhagen and went on a canal tour. From the boat we saw the Royal Opera House, the Little Mermaid, and even a boat called "the Philippa".

Then we set off for four hours of power shopping in Denmark's largest pedestrian street. Then we took a sauna on wheels, also known as city bus #2, for 35 minutes. After shedding a few pounds we walked, or in Erin L's case got wheeled, over 4 miles to the church where we practiced the opera.

After, the bus picked us up and returned to the hotel, we enjoyed some well-deserved pizza. After supper, we had time to relax and have fun within the hotel!

Off to bed now! Love to everyone, especially to my grandparents, Peter and Margaret Lowe, who celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary today.
