While Geoff escorted a tour to the Maritime Museum, Lea escorted a tour to the charming traditional village of Kristianopel and a walk through the town of Karlskrona.
In the evening we attended the guest entertainer's performance, Phillip Browne. He takes his vocation very seriously. Phillip is in the cabin next to us and we listen to him warming his vocals for hours in the afternoon. 🎶🎶😃

Lea escorted the Jazz Sunset Cruise in the evening along the canals of Copenhagen. The weather was amazing and everyone was out and about at every vantage point enjoying the sunshine.
We arrived at the boat to the tune of jazz and a glass of cava. With the right weather this is a must do excursion.

We arrived in the beautiful city of Copenhagen and went for a walk to explore the Citadel where they were having a special ceremony to honour former soldiers in the Royal Guard. We walked past and took the obligatory photos of the Little Mermaid and the Bronze fountain completed in 1908, depicting Norse goddess Gefion plowing the sea with 4 oxen (as you do 😃). It was then back to the ship for Lea to get ready for an evening excursion and Geoff to complete his new presentation to be delivered that evening.

Back in 2000, we sailed Paddington III to Copenhagen, we left James and younger son Charles by the little mermaid, then elder son Jeremy and I put the spinnaker up, which featured a Paddington Bear on it, and sailed it towards the Little Mermaid, for James to take some wonderful photos of the occasion! That was definitely one for the album. We also celebrated Jeremy's 17th birthday at TIVOLI.
Beautiful!
You should have visited St Albans church next to the Gefion Fountain. It’s an English church and you would have thought you were in England on the inside. There is an Oak tree on the green opposite planted by the then Prince Charles. There is a small plaque infront of the tree
