As Raksha has said today's excursion around Copenhagen started of well with most (leaders) being a little late for the meeting point.
When all were finally there we headed of to our train which didn't move, so we waited and waited some more... Finally we crossed platforms and were on our way.
The tour started of with a look around an old military base which had started of as a squatters commune way back in 1971, but which now has evolved into what is known as Christiania a partially self-governing community.
Christiania and the Goverment have a lot of issues to resolve too many to mention here but from a personnal view it was amazing to see this so close to a modern city like Copenhagen and a fasinating insight to what can happen when minds are put to something.
Our boat ride which followed lunch was destined not to happen when mother nature decided to empty her rain upon us in bucket upon bucket loads. Hence why the shop hopping some headed towards Burger king and settling for McDonalds others just looking around. after some time there we met up and went home a little soggier than when we started.
Tuesdays beach trip has been put back to Wednesday as the weather is supposed to be better so tomorrow we go to Tivoli, basically blackpool in a big square.
