After the drinks we were off again, back the Church of Our Savior. Aunt Deb, Uncle Chuck, Mom and I climbed the tower while Dad went and got food for a picnic supper. My dad doesn't like heights so we climb the towers and he stays safely on the ground. The views from the top were incredible, not only could you see all of Copenhagen, but you could also see out into the ocean and to Sweden. In the ocean, they have the biggest wind turbines I have ever seen; they stretch out in a long line.
Once we had climbed back down from the tower, we took a bus towards the Black Diamond, a building that leans out over the water. There are a series of large steps leading down to the canal and that is where we choose to have our picnic dinner. You may have noticed that I said nothing about lunch, that's because we didn't have any, so as you can guess we polished off everything pretty quick. We stopped at the bakery, had one of those giant cupcakes, which is more like the size of a regular cake.
There is a sand sculpture contest going on along the harbor. We checked it out and they were so cool. There were about 15 sculptures and the tallest was thirty feet high. One was even dyed different colors: green and purple sand.
After the sand sculptures we headed back to the hostel. Surprise of all surprises the adults are drinking beer again, this time in the lobby. There is a giant group of people here wearing IPho shirts, I have no idea what it means. But they are teenagers from all over the world. I rode the elevator with what I think was a group of Chinese kids. Well, I'm exhausted. Signing off for some sleep.
