Spring Fever


First let me just say that I love Easter, I love General Conference, I love my husband/future baby, and I love Spring!

Spring fever? Who, me?

So now, the real reason for my post: In Denmark, Easter weekend comes along with 3 bank holidays, so on Friday we decided to do an all day date and enjoy the weather. It has been a while since we were able to do that, mostly because until recently I was spending every spare minute laying on the couch with a large bucket nearby. I have been feeling a bit better lately, YAY! So Friday was really fun. We wandered around the city for a while - and Copenhagen was beautiful as usual:


After a little while we encountered Rosenborg Castle which neither of us have ever been inside, and decided to be a bit spontaneous and do the whole tour of the castle right then and there.

It's the castle that was used as a residence by the Danish monarchy from around the 1600's to the 1800's, until they decided they would like a castle with more than one bathroom in it and moved to Amalienborg instead. First we checked out the crown jewels, which literally are...crowns and jewels and various combinations thereof. Then we walked around in the living quarters inside the castle, which was lots of fun. Some pictures outside the castle:

By the way I know I'm huge and yes I'm sure it's not twins.

After that we hit the Hard Rock Cafe - best American food in town!

I am a sucker for funny signs and I love the sign they have on the door of each bathroom stall:

...and after that we hit the movie theater (Alice in Wonderland 3D), and went home tired but happy! All in all, a great day.
