I saw them three years ago, so I didn't bother.

I guess you weren't impressed with them the first time around.

Maybe they look different now.


They looked pretty gray back then, so I doubt they have improved.

I'm still disappointed you didn't go see them anyway.  Keith saw them from a plane once and they were striking from up high.

It will be nice to spend a little time in Copenhagen, but I think I am really ready to go home.

Will you be going to Tivoli Gardens?  I had the best soft ice cream cone there.  It was so good I went back for seconds.

No, I guess I wasn't.  I was mostly disappointed.

We are planning on going Sunday afternoon, followed by dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe.

It probably had  a good quarter mile clearance, but it looked close to me.

I saw they from a hovercraft that crossed the channel 39 years ago. Still remember how beautiful they were. Even if saw no bluebirds.

It's always fun to go away for awhile.....and it's always great to come back home.

Which is why I would have gone to the top of the ship to see them again, even if I was unimpressed the first time.

DR TCB I hope your ice cream at the Garden's is as good as I remember it.  When we were in Sydney there was an ice cream place called Royal Copenhagen Ice Cream.  Remembering how good the ice cream was in Copenhagen I, of course, had to have it there.  I believe we went everyday for a scoop it was sooooo yummy.

We saw the conning tower (I think that is what it is called).

Call me an ugly American.  It just didn't seem like it was worth fighting the elevators and the raised door frames to go outside to see them again.  Last time we were docked directly below them.

And don't be shocked, but I probably won't go and see The Little Mermaid again either.  I have seen it both times I was in Copenhagen before.

When I went to London many years ago I took a one day tour to France.  This was before Eurostar.   It involved taking a bus to Dover and then a boat to Calais, I believe.  I can't remember that much about the white cliffs, though.

In other news, guess who's going to be playing Georges in the Signature Theatre production of La Cage aux Folles in Arlington, VA?   The website says "starring Bobby Smith" (as Albin) , who apparently is a well -known local actor (but not to me).   I assume they'll be announcing the news soon.

I assume you know the answer, and I'll bet it isn't Barbra.
