You will never guess what happened today…

We woke up this morning without the sound of rain – amazing! After breakfast, we headed down to the bus stop ourselves, and wandered into the Planetarium. To get in to the Planetarium, you need to buy a ticket to an Imax movie. We missed an English speaking movie by 5 minutes. But it was starting to rain, so we thought we would buy a ticket to the next movie, and have a look around. We had 2 hours to fill, and so looked around for a while, then watched 2 3D movies. The first one was a roller coaster ride, which was a lot of fun, and the second one was a jungle movie – the animals came very close! Each movie was only a couple of minutes long.

Eventually, it was time to go in to Imax and watch Wild Safari. We haven’t been to Imax before, so it was good to see how it all worked, they started with a look at the stars over Denmark, then into the movie. There was a lot of driving around, which after a while got a bit much (a few people had to leave the theatre throughout the movie!). The Imax theatre is pretty cool though – so big.

From here we headed back to the square, and had a hot dog for lunch, before heading to the museum. The Danish Museum has a great exhibition on the history of Denmark, which made the city much more interesting. Before long, though, we were heading back to Robert & Ela’s and from there, we all headed out to some friends of Robert & Ela’s for a barbeque. It was similar to an Australian barbeque (steak and sausages cooked on the Weber, people standing around the garden chatting etc), so this was familiar, and luckily, there were people there from all over the place, so everyone was speaking English!

We had a great time, finishing the night with music and dancing, before heading home in the early hours...
