We made a short notice booking to Copenhagen, Jayne had the first week in September booked off and we wanted to try and do a city break. Five nights hardly seemed enough but the short flight was ok. We flew over home heading east on a beautiful morning. I love flying over an area that I know and being able to see it from above. We had been warned that Copenhagen was expensive-it was! I hadn’t done any research before we set off but on the flight over, I read that taxis were expensive, so it was best to use the Metro from the airport, it isn’t far in to the city and the Metro was fairly easy to use. However! We should have caught the train, I read this whist we were sat on the Metro it has to be said! The nearest Metro stop, which I was frantically trying to work out, using my phone, travelling in and out of tunnels, turned out to be a 1.5 mile walk from our hotel, the rail station was .5. Never mind we were there to walk-subject to my lately diagnosed arthritic ankle, we just didn’t want to be towing suitcases over cobbled pavements at the same time.
We were staying in the Tivoli Hotel which was described as central, it is near Central Station but you wouldn’t describe it as central to the city. Our room wasn’t ready but we could upgrade for a modest amount plus we realised it would be a good idea to include breakfast in the upgrade deal. A good move as it turned out. Our room overlooked the train lines-all twelve of them!! We could already hear train brakes squealing along with the thump thump of steel wheels rolling over points and joints. It’s true to say that Central Station is a 24/7 operation. The overnight noise didn’t bother Jayne but I could hear it all night.
We dumped our stuff and I loaded up with the backpack and camera and we were straight out there. Copenhagen is a relatively small city but there is a lot to see. We were soon finding out that it has an extensive network of canals and bridges and these are a major feature of life in the city. Pan flat, the cyclist rules, There appeared to be twice as many bikes as residents, with countless thousands propped up everywhere you went. Where ever you looked there was silent conveyor of sit up and beg cycles being ridden in all directions. You soon got used to looking over your shoulder before making a move. The vast majority of bikes are left unlocked and almost no one wears a helmet ( I’m a no helmet man, much to the annoyance of the helmet zealots). Copenhagen is reputedly the happiest place in the world and it certainly came across as friendly and relaxed. It is, though, one of the most expensive cities in the world and two burgers and two small glasses of wine at Nyhavn cost us £50. Comically, there were four people, local to us, shouting out Jayne’s name, they had seen us going past and we had a laugh about the prices, They were sat drinking beer at £8.50 a pint. Despite the expense, the place was packed with people parting with their money. Wages are very high locally, as are the taxes. The high wages and high costs must feed each other in an upward spiral I would have thought.
Unfortunately the cost of entering buildings to go up towers etc. for a higher view of the city was also very expensive (to us). The tower at Christiansborg Palace is free but restricted by the lift system and you don’t get to the top, it does also open later than the others so you have a chance of seeing sunset over the city. Unfortunately the lifts were out of order on one of our best weather days. We did get to go up the day after but it was dull and I wasn’t overly impressed. The spiral tower across in Christiana, The Church of Our Saviour, was far more impressive. We climbed the tower here just after it opened on a stunning morning and the views are fantastic. There will be incredible bottlenecks when it’s busy though on the corkscrew stairs that get progressively narrower towards the top. Some people hog it to take endless selfies at the top and it is extremely tight up there, you can’t move up until they come down.
As usual, we tried to get to some out of the way places, with only five days and mixed weather though we had enough mainstream destinations to see. We had a day of heavy rain so we went back to the rail station which was a good indoor (and free!) destination, and made umbrellas and the rain the focal point of that days photos. The entire Danish navy seemed to be at anchor, we just missed an open day on one ship. Some I could photograph, others were guarded and had restrictions, I got the evil eye from a couple of guards as the spotted the big Canon in my hand. I can’t imagine that they could police the Japanese and stop them from getting their photos and selfies though. I always act very openly with the camera and if people look at me suspiciously I smile and give them the thumbs up. In a rail station I usually ask the police. In Central Station the police were in their station and I never saw one move out, it is covered by extensive CCTV but there were some very unpleasant people, drinking and watching for people being careless with their belongings. We were lucky to be in the station on Sunday as a tourist steam train arrived, it sat at the platform belching smoke and steam for fifteen minutes, it was also coming back in an hour so we had an expensive coffee and waited to see it again. There was big military event outside the Christiansborg Palace on Monday, with a parade through the city that came past just as we were in a good spot to view it. The area was full of soldiers wearing their medals. We haven’t discovered the reason, although someone suggested a passing out parade for new recruits. Maybe the ships were in port for this as well.
Tivoli Gardens is another big draw and we went in, again it was fairly expensive, it had been a stunning day and the biggest problem was contrast, with deep shadows and a bright blue sky. We stayed until dark, it opens late and is very colourful. We went on the world’s highest carousel and got flung around 260 odd feet in the air. Luckily, we also found a bar that served wine at ‘only’ £5.60 a glass so we sat and watched people have fun screaming and shrieking above us.
There are many buildings with copper domes, entire copper roofs, even modern buildings are often clad in either brass or copper to blend in with the ancient buildings around them. Like every city we have visited, tower cranes are in abundance. There is a lot of development going on and unfortunately a lot of it is around buildings that you would want to photograph. We walked 12 to 14 mile every day and took in most of the sights. We didn’t really do any interiors, only towers and the railway station. At the time of writing I haven’t looked at what I’ve got, I have around 3000 shots, some on the G1X which I used when it was raining heavily as it easy to put in a pocket. I have a lot less time for editing these days so it will be a long process I think. To save time I am going to create a list of generic tags that I can copy and paste to each upload – the time saving is enormous – so apologies to anyone who gets a photo of a canal when they wanted a steam train or vice versa.

There are many buildings with copper domes, entire copper roofs, even modern buildings are often clad in either brass or copper to blend in with the ancient buildings around them. Like every city we have visited, tower cranes are in abundance. There is a lot of development going on and unfortunately a lot of it is around buildings that you would want to photograph. We walked 12 to 14 mile every day and took in most of the sights. We didn’t really do any interiors, only towers and the railway station. At the time of writing I haven’t looked at what I’ve got, I have around 3000 shots, some on the G1X which I used when it was raining heavily as it easy to put in a pocket. I have a lot less time for editing these days so it will be a long process I think. To save time I am going to create a list of generic tags that I can copy and paste to each upload – the time saving is enormous – so apologies to anyone who gets a photo of a canal when they wanted a steam train or vice versa.
DJ AND PRODUCER
AGENT: LUCA CARGNELLI
BOOKING PARTNERSHIP FOR ITALY
David Tort is one of the most relevant Spanish artists taking part of the global electronic scene, a fact proven by his over half a hundred released productions, among which hits like "Changes", "7 Eleven, "Work It Out", "Lost in Acid", "Amazonia" and also remixes for David Guetta, Tïesto & Nelly Furtado, Bob Sinclar, Ultra Naté or even Spanish Pop Diva Marta Sánchez and the American Idol Blake Lewis. His music is included in the soundtrack of several MTV USA's reality shows, some television channels and may also be found in compilations by Ministry of Sound, Azuli, Yoshitoshi, Defected, Cream and others.
He first entered a recording studio on 1990, experimenting with EMB and Acid House, but it was not until 1998 that he published his first works. On 2004 he founded Overbooking Studio with Dj Ruff. During the 90s, he was resident DJ in real cult clubs at Barcelona, among which starrs Pacha Sitges, the first Pacha there was. He has spent 6 years of his career offering us his sessions every summer at L'Atlantida, a legendary club by the Mediterranian sea shore which belongs to the Amnesia Ibiza group. His international DJ career started in 2003, and he's been in dozens of countries, where he's been acclaimed by the audience thanks to his savoir faire at the turntables, making people dance for over two decades at clubs like Avalon (Los Angeles, USA), Pacha NY, Space (Miami), WMC (Miami), Amnesia (Ibiza), Sun Dance Music Festival (Godskitchen, Canadá) amongst others. His exclusive personal style, straight to the dancefloor, has taken him to be the first (and so far, the last too) Spanish DJ to mix at the Playboy Mansion in Beverly Hills.
His work has been recognized by both the critics and the audience, Proof of this are the many Deejamags Awards nominations each year which has received several awards, Best Remixer of the Year Award with "Work It Out" and Best Resident Deejay with "L'Atlantida Sitges" amongst others. On 2008, after working with the most important dance music labels, David decided to work with Vendetta Records in the creation of his own label, "The Mansion Recordings", a new project that also was granted a Deejaymags 2008 Best Label Award nomination. Tracks like his Remix for Gui Boratto "no Turning Back", "When I became a Punk" with Dj Ruff, or "Venture" by Swanky Tunes have sweeped through the dancefloors all over the world. And there's even more! We may follow his radio DJ proposal at his weekly radioshow "Rock Da House", a including new releases and the jewels of his case. "Rock Da House" is broadcasted in Spain by Loca FM, 246Live (Canada), LaX (Colombia) and other countries as Canada, Germany, Austria, Estonia and Russia.

We made a short notice booking to Copenhagen, Jayne had the first week in September booked off and we wanted to try and do a city break. Five nights hardly seemed enough but the short flight was ok. We flew over home heading east on a beautiful morning. I love flying over an area that I know and being able to see it from above. We had been warned that Copenhagen was expensive-it was! I hadn’t done any research before we set off but on the flight over, I read that taxis were expensive, so it was best to use the Metro from the airport, it isn’t far in to the city and the Metro was fairly easy to use. However! We should have caught the train, I read this whist we were sat on the Metro it has to be said! The nearest Metro stop, which I was frantically trying to work out, using my phone, travelling in and out of tunnels, turned out to be a 1.5 mile walk from our hotel, the rail station was .5. Never mind we were there to walk-subject to my lately diagnosed arthritic ankle, we just didn’t want to be towing suitcases over cobbled pavements at the same time.
We were staying in the Tivoli Hotel which was described as central, it is near Central Station but you wouldn’t describe it as central to the city. Our room wasn’t ready but we could upgrade for a modest amount plus we realised it would be a good idea to include breakfast in the upgrade deal. A good move as it turned out. Our room overlooked the train lines-all twelve of them!! We could already hear train brakes squealing along with the thump thump of steel wheels rolling over points and joints. It’s true to say that Central Station is a 24/7 operation. The overnight noise didn’t bother Jayne but I could hear it all night.
We dumped our stuff and I loaded up with the backpack and camera and we were straight out there. Copenhagen is a relatively small city but there is a lot to see. We were soon finding out that it has an extensive network of canals and bridges and these are a major feature of life in the city. Pan flat, the cyclist rules, There appeared to be twice as many bikes as residents, with countless thousands propped up everywhere you went. Where ever you looked there was silent conveyor of sit up and beg cycles being ridden in all directions. You soon got used to looking over your shoulder before making a move. The vast majority of bikes are left unlocked and almost no one wears a helmet ( I’m a no helmet man, much to the annoyance of the helmet zealots). Copenhagen is reputedly the happiest place in the world and it certainly came across as friendly and relaxed. It is, though, one of the most expensive cities in the world and two burgers and two small glasses of wine at Nyhavn cost us £50. Comically, there were four people, local to us, shouting out Jayne’s name, they had seen us going past and we had a laugh about the prices, They were sat drinking beer at £8.50 a pint. Despite the expense, the place was packed with people parting with their money. Wages are very high locally, as are the taxes. The high wages and high costs must feed each other in an upward spiral I would have thought.
Unfortunately the cost of entering buildings to go up towers etc. for a higher view of the city was also very expensive (to us). The tower at Christiansborg Palace is free but restricted by the lift system and you don’t get to the top, it does also open later than the others so you have a chance of seeing sunset over the city. Unfortunately the lifts were out of order on one of our best weather days. We did get to go up the day after but it was dull and I wasn’t overly impressed. The spiral tower across in Christiana, The Church of Our Saviour, was far more impressive. We climbed the tower here just after it opened on a stunning morning and the views are fantastic. There will be incredible bottlenecks when it’s busy though on the corkscrew stairs that get progressively narrower towards the top. Some people hog it to take endless selfies at the top and it is extremely tight up there, you can’t move up until they come down.
As usual, we tried to get to some out of the way places, with only five days and mixed weather though we had enough mainstream destinations to see. We had a day of heavy rain so we went back to the rail station which was a good indoor (and free!) destination, and made umbrellas and the rain the focal point of that days photos. The entire Danish navy seemed to be at anchor, we just missed an open day on one ship. Some I could photograph, others were guarded and had restrictions, I got the evil eye from a couple of guards as the spotted the big Canon in my hand. I can’t imagine that they could police the Japanese and stop them from getting their photos and selfies though. I always act very openly with the camera and if people look at me suspiciously I smile and give them the thumbs up. In a rail station I usually ask the police. In Central Station the police were in their station and I never saw one move out, it is covered by extensive CCTV but there were some very unpleasant people, drinking and watching for people being careless with their belongings. We were lucky to be in the station on Sunday as a tourist steam train arrived, it sat at the platform belching smoke and steam for fifteen minutes, it was also coming back in an hour so we had an expensive coffee and waited to see it again. There was big military event outside the Christiansborg Palace on Monday, with a parade through the city that came past just as we were in a good spot to view it. The area was full of soldiers wearing their medals. We haven’t discovered the reason, although someone suggested a passing out parade for new recruits. Maybe the ships were in port for this as well.
Tivoli Gardens is another big draw and we went in, again it was fairly expensive, it had been a stunning day and the biggest problem was contrast, with deep shadows and a bright blue sky. We stayed until dark, it opens late and is very colourful. We went on the world’s highest carousel and got flung around 260 odd feet in the air. Luckily, we also found a bar that served wine at ‘only’ £5.60 a glass so we sat and watched people have fun screaming and shrieking above us.

La La Land Movie Tickets

First I had planned to fly on Asian Spirit, not Seair, but Asian Spirit's online booking site looks even more rudimentary and scary than Seair's. When finally booking Seair online, I sit in the Northern Lao hinterlands and have little chance to make arrangements by phone or personal appearance. But I don't want to book later, after arrival in Manila, I want our seats now: The tiny planes to northern Palawan are known to fill up fast.
So I sit there in this remote internet shop and hack in our birth dates and such. Fully correct, Seair observes that we are both pax type "FC", meaning 12 to 200 years old. If you're from 201 to 202 years old, it's pax type "YCD", according to Seair's online list. They fail to define pax types from 203 years up.
One last click, then I confirm the order – I finally made it through this confusing site.
But now the browser shows only one name, only my name. Where is the wife mentioned? I am very sure I typed in both the wife and me before. I wouldn't click the rather rude "Delete Pax" button next to her name. I do a screenshot of this last page on the site and store it on the USB stick.
Well, not too bad, I think: Soon I'll receive an e-mail from Seair and I will see if we have one or two reservations.
But I never receive an e-mail from Seair (not even in the spam folder).
Well, not too bad, I think: On the screenshot I made there is a booking number (they call it "record locator" in the Philippines).
But I never find out how to use the booking number to trace back our current booking status, maybe it's not possibe. And as I'm in Laotian hinterlands, calling the airline in Manila is no easy option either.
Very scared, I ask for advice on the travel forum. I also write to Seair's support desk, again mentioning all detail's for me and the wife and our prebooked stay in Manila.
On the travel forum, others agree that Seair's web site is no picnic. One helpful soul, based in Manila, offers to call the airline on my behalf and to report back to me via e-mail.
Seair answers my e-mail within twelve hours. They say that indeed only one seat had been booked. For me. But now – upon my desparate e-mail – they reserved another seat for the wife too. For her ticket we have to visit Seair's ticketing office a day before departure. That's doable. Seair even points out in their e-mail that their Manila office is just steps away from our prebooked hotel in Manila.
The helpful soul from the forum mails back that she/he (I don't know) interviewed Seair by phone. Seair revealed all my bookings and plans including hotel data to the helpful soul and confirmed by phone that we now actually hold reservations for both spouse and me. So all is fine. And, asks the helpful soul, shouldn't we all meet for a cold one in Manila?
At Seair's ticketing office in Manila-Makati we get a ticket for the wife and pay cash. It's cheaper than my online ticket. The friendly, patient Seair clerk says that I should have received an e-ticket by e-mail.
I never received one e-mail from Seair, I reply. So I don't have an e-ticket.
The clerk's look implies that I might be overchallenged with handling e-mail software. She says she will have a new e-ticket faxed in for me, but it would take a moment. Finally we sit there half an hour on plastic chairs before the fax machine disgorges my e-ticket.
MUNDIAL RUSIA 2018- GRUPO E: BRASIL, SUIZA, COSTA RICA Y SERBIA
MAMUTRIP quiere que conozcamos juntos los lugares desde donde viene cada selección participante de este Mundial de Futbol. Hoy conoceremos las que integran el Grupo E: Brasil, Suiza, Costa Rica y Serbia.
En BRASIL muy cerca de Río de Janeiro está Arraial do Cabo, conocida por tener la arena más blanca de toda la región. Uno de sus puntos a favor, es que se encuentra muy cerca de Búzios y Cabo Frío, por lo que se torna ideal para quienes gustan recorrer ciudades vecinas y no quedarse quietos. Sus playas son como pequeñas ensenadas, rodeadas de morros cubiertos de vegetación y cerradas al mar abierto, formando piscinas naturales gigantescas, perfectas para los aficionados del buceo.
SUIZA tiene un lugar conocido mundialmente por su festival de jazz y ese lugar es Montreux sinónimo de hogar de la música. Está situado en las orillas del lago de Ginebra, en el corazón de la Riviera suiza, la ciudad es considerada el paseo más hermoso de Suiza. Salpicadas de palmeras y rodeado de viñedos, la propiedad ha inspirado a muchos artistas y escritores, entre ellos Delacroix y Courbet, Jean-Jacques Rousseau y Lord Byron.
En COSTA RICA podemos visitar el Parque Nacional Volcán Arenal y La Fortuna, que solía ser uno de los volcanes más activos de Costa Rica. El Arenal sigue siendo sin duda un hermoso espectáculo para la vista. La Fortuna, es un pequeño pueblo cerca de la base del majestuoso volcán espectacular belleza. Mientras permanezcamos aquí no hay que dejar de visitar las maravillosas Aguas Termales, un paraíso tropical donde podemos relajar mente y cuerpo.
El tren de más famosos de SERBIA es el Šargan Eight, es un tren histórico de trocha angosta (760 mm) y locomotora a vapor que debe su nombre a la figura que forman las vías vistas desde el cielo. Un ocho entre las montañas que une el pequeño pueblo de Mokra Gora con la estación de Šargan Vitasi. Ya de por sí, el proyecto es singular: la idea de un trazado con esta figura sirvió para sortear los 300 m de diferencia entre las estaciones. Pero más allá de esta particularidad, su historia está rodeada de mitos.

Luckily, we also found a bar that served wine at ‘only’ £5.60 a glass so we sat and watched people have fun screaming and shrieking above us.
There are many buildings with copper domes, entire copper roofs, even modern buildings are often clad in either brass or copper to blend in with the ancient buildings around them. Like every city we have visited, tower cranes are in abundance. There is a lot of development going on and unfortunately a lot of it is around buildings that you would want to photograph. We walked 12 to 14 mile every day and took in most of the sights. We didn’t really do any interiors, only towers and the railway station. At the time of writing I haven’t looked at what I’ve got, I have around 3000 shots, some on the G1X which I used when it was raining heavily as it easy to put in a pocket. I have a lot less time for editing these days so it will be a long process I think. To save time I am going to create a list of generic tags that I can copy and paste to each upload – the time saving is enormous – so apologies to anyone who gets a photo of a canal when they wanted a steam train or vice versa.
RD12670. The Booking Office at the reconstruction of the Great Western Railway Winchester Chesil Station at the Milestones Museum in Basingstoke, Hampshire.
Originally called Winchester Cheesehill, it was opened by the Didcot, Newbury & Southampton Railway in 1885; British Railways renamed in Winchester Chesil in 1949 and closed it, like so many other lines and stations, in the 1960s. The site is now a multi-storey car park.
If you haven't been to the Milestones Museum you really should put it on your 'To Do' list. More details here : hampshireculturaltrust.org.uk/milestones-museum

We were staying in the Tivoli Hotel which was described as central, it is near Central Station but you wouldn’t describe it as central to the city. Our room wasn’t ready but we could upgrade for a modest amount plus we realised it would be a good idea to include breakfast in the upgrade deal. A good move as it turned out. Our room overlooked the train lines-all twelve of them!! We could already hear train brakes squealing along with the thump thump of steel wheels rolling over points and joints. It’s true to say that Central Station is a 24/7 operation. The overnight noise didn’t bother Jayne but I could hear it all night.
We dumped our stuff and I loaded up with the backpack and camera and we were straight out there. Copenhagen is a relatively small city but there is a lot to see. We were soon finding out that it has an extensive network of canals and bridges and these are a major feature of life in the city. Pan flat, the cyclist rules, There appeared to be twice as many bikes as residents, with countless thousands propped up everywhere you went. Where ever you looked there was silent conveyor of sit up and beg cycles being ridden in all directions. You soon got used to looking over your shoulder before making a move. The vast majority of bikes are left unlocked and almost no one wears a helmet ( I’m a no helmet man, much to the annoyance of the helmet zealots). Copenhagen is reputedly the happiest place in the world and it certainly came across as friendly and relaxed. It is, though, one of the most expensive cities in the world and two burgers and two small glasses of wine at Nyhavn cost us £50. Comically, there were four people, local to us, shouting out Jayne’s name, they had seen us going past and we had a laugh about the prices, They were sat drinking beer at £8.50 a pint. Despite the expense, the place was packed with people parting with their money. Wages are very high locally, as are the taxes. The high wages and high costs must feed each other in an upward spiral I would have thought.
Unfortunately the cost of entering buildings to go up towers etc. for a higher view of the city was also very expensive (to us). The tower at Christiansborg Palace is free but restricted by the lift system and you don’t get to the top, it does also open later than the others so you have a chance of seeing sunset over the city. Unfortunately the lifts were out of order on one of our best weather days. We did get to go up the day after but it was dull and I wasn’t overly impressed. The spiral tower across in Christiana, The Church of Our Saviour, was far more impressive. We climbed the tower here just after it opened on a stunning morning and the views are fantastic. There will be incredible bottlenecks when it’s busy though on the corkscrew stairs that get progressively narrower towards the top. Some people hog it to take endless selfies at the top and it is extremely tight up there, you can’t move up until they come down.
As usual, we tried to get to some out of the way places, with only five days and mixed weather though we had enough mainstream destinations to see. We had a day of heavy rain so we went back to the rail station which was a good indoor (and free!) destination, and made umbrellas and the rain the focal point of that days photos. The entire Danish navy seemed to be at anchor, we just missed an open day on one ship. Some I could photograph, others were guarded and had restrictions, I got the evil eye from a couple of guards as the spotted the big Canon in my hand. I can’t imagine that they could police the Japanese and stop them from getting their photos and selfies though. I always act very openly with the camera and if people look at me suspiciously I smile and give them the thumbs up. In a rail station I usually ask the police. In Central Station the police were in their station and I never saw one move out, it is covered by extensive CCTV but there were some very unpleasant people, drinking and watching for people being careless with their belongings. We were lucky to be in the station on Sunday as a tourist steam train arrived, it sat at the platform belching smoke and steam for fifteen minutes, it was also coming back in an hour so we had an expensive coffee and waited to see it again. There was big military event outside the Christiansborg Palace on Monday, with a parade through the city that came past just as we were in a good spot to view it. The area was full of soldiers wearing their medals. We haven’t discovered the reason, although someone suggested a passing out parade for new recruits. Maybe the ships were in port for this as well.
Tivoli Gardens is another big draw and we went in, again it was fairly expensive, it had been a stunning day and the biggest problem was contrast, with deep shadows and a bright blue sky. We stayed until dark, it opens late and is very colourful. We went on the world’s highest carousel and got flung around 260 odd feet in the air. Luckily, we also found a bar that served wine at ‘only’ £5.60 a glass so we sat and watched people have fun screaming and shrieking above us.
There are many buildings with copper domes, entire copper roofs, even modern buildings are often clad in either brass or copper to blend in with the ancient buildings around them. Like every city we have visited, tower cranes are in abundance. There is a lot of development going on and unfortunately a lot of it is around buildings that you would want to photograph. We walked 12 to 14 mile every day and took in most of the sights. We didn’t really do any interiors, only towers and the railway station. At the time of writing I haven’t looked at what I’ve got, I have around 3000 shots, some on the G1X which I used when it was raining heavily as it easy to put in a pocket. I have a lot less time for editing these days so it will be a long process I think. To save time I am going to create a list of generic tags that I can copy and paste to each upload – the time saving is enormous – so apologies to anyone who gets a photo of a canal when they wanted a steam train or vice versa.

We made a short notice booking to Copenhagen, Jayne had the first week in September booked off and we wanted to try and do a city break. Five nights hardly seemed enough but the short flight was ok. We flew over home heading east on a beautiful morning. I love flying over an area that I know and being able to see it from above. We had been warned that Copenhagen was expensive-it was! I hadn’t done any research before we set off but on the flight over, I read that taxis were expensive, so it was best to use the Metro from the airport, it isn’t far in to the city and the Metro was fairly easy to use. However! We should have caught the train, I read this whist we were sat on the Metro it has to be said!
