Day 14--Remembrance, grief, and love: Roskilde

Today we all spent the day in Roskilde, which was a 40 minute train ride away.  Upon arriving, we met up with Mogens, who took us to a bakery, where he bought us whatever we wanted.  I got a Danish and some hot chocolate.  We then walked over to the cathedral there and toured the inside.  After that, we had lunch, then walked over to the Viking Ship Museum and spent some time there.  My favorite part of that was when we dressed in Viking clothes and posed for a lot of pictures.  We then took the train home.

Later, Ian and I went to Strecker's, a bar near Copenhagen Central Station.  We didn't plan to stay out very late, but the drinks turned out to be good, and the live entertainment wasn't bad either.  I had only one drink, a Mai Tai (a very sweet drink aka your classical "chick drink").  We succeeded in requesting several songs, including "Smoke on the Water," but they didn't play one of the songs we requested, "Piano Man," before we decided to leave at 2:15 am.  We got back at around 2:45 and quickly went to bed.  (This is why I am posting this a little late, so I apologize for that.)
