After being apart for over 2 months, the time finally came for Inger & I to be reunited. Mila, Dina, Charlie, Natasha & I flew the friendly skies over to Copenhagen, Denmark. 
We arrived Friday night to be greeted by a very tanned Inger & Pernille who took us out for a quick drink once we had dumped our stuff. An early night (midnight) ensured we were well rested for the next day.
Saturday morning we hit the shopping district. The day was spent trying things on, running between stores, so many shoes, handbags & accessories! Our main aim was to get Mila's new watch which is a Danish brand. Luckily for her we hit a bargain at the local department store. The
exact watch she wanted, plus 25% discount! Awesome. Ofcourse for the rest of the weekend Mila kept trying to sneak peeks at her new watch but someone always caught her! After a hard day shopping we had a quick powernap then it was back out to dance the night away.
Pernille & Inger took us to the club VEGA and the girls & I were on the lookout for any vikings named THOR. Our mission was to find him. Once midnight hit and we sang happy birthday to Inger we were all on the dance floor having a great time. About 3am the old age fatigue set in and I had to call it quits. Luckily on the way out we met THOR, well he said his name was, so it was a successful mission. Then off into the night the girls & I went and tried to hail to cabs to get us back, bit of a drama as we don't speak Danish but we made it back in one piece. 4 hours of sleep and it was back up to a celebratory brunch for Inger's birthday. Her brother (Jorgen) came with us as well. The food was fantastic and we filled our bellies in preparation of the tourist filled day ahead. A little tearful farewell to Inger (who was
spending her b'day with her family) and with the sun shining, we were on the hop on - hop off bus around Copenhagen. 
A couple of palaces, the little mermaid, the opera house, town hall, little Amsterdam, the royal yacht, a boat ride and the we started to slow down. By late afternoon it was off to the airport to find out our flight was delayed. Luckily we were able to buy english magazines for £5 (even though it said £1.75 on the front). We made sure we read every word. Then it was back home and in bed by 1.30am. A fantastic trip, hopefully not the last.
