Days 56 and 57--Last weekend in Copenhagen

This weekend is my last weekend ever in Copenhagen, so Ian, Ryan, and I decided to make the most of it.  On Saturday we went to Frederiksborg Castle for the afternoon, about 45 minutes away in Hillerod.  It was absolutely gorgeous, not just the castle itself but also the surrounding gardens.  After walking around the castle we got to see a free concert, which consisted of Chinese performers and Chinese instruments.  They were really good (they came straight from Beijing), and I was able to take some video samples of the performance.  After the concert we walked around the gardens for a bit (did I mention that they were gorgous?) and I got to take some awesome pictures.  We then had dinner and took the subway home.

On Sunday, I started to pack away most of my stuff.  I also decided to not go with Ian and Ryan to the arsenal museum.  Instead, I grabbed stuff from Baresso for lunch, ate at the park nearby, and walked around for a bit.  Additionally, I walked around the forts and passed by the Little Mermaid statue again.  Later, Ian, Ryan, and I met up with Kasper for dinner at a place called "Zalt" in Norreport.  The food we had was very good, and we stayed for several hours after eating.  It was close to 10 by the time we left the restaurant, and I stopped at Paradis to get ice cream on the way back home.
