I found the motorway towards Manchester airport to be more like a parking lot, so I took backroads (cutting through Warrington at 8am) and somehow made it to the airport on time. The flight was somewhat annoying, because I had the world's most obnocsious passenger to the left, and the most nervous on the right. At least the food was decent.
Copenhagen airport is very nice, and the train station joins up directly to it (what a concept, c'mon Toledo). Took the train to city center for 28 kroners (Denmark doesn't use Euros). The trainstation roof is a timberframe masterpiece!
Walked the city a bit and found my hotel. Walked the city some more, visiting the National Museum. It is a wonderful museum and covering both art and some natural history. It had some great Hindu statuary of Pavarti, Shiva, and Gonesh. It also had some amazing medieval Christian woodcarvings.
Tomorrow is a trianing day, but on Saturday I'm hoping to see some more sights. By the way, it is cold here! There is some frozen snow that melts in the sun during the day and refreezes at night. Reminds me of what Ohio is supposed to be like. In England we have only seen frost 2 or 3 times this season, and ice forming on ponds or rivers is pretty laughable.
