Hi Soren!
Visited Copenhagen this summer, loved it . Beautiful town. Was there once before when I was 10 years old. It's a place that I will never forget and will always hold dear in my heart. My Polish Prince proposed to me there under a fountain.
And I said YES!!!

There is so much history and interesting buildings! We walked to the pier, had a pizza, watched a magician and artists painting on the streets, got souvenirs and pictures of the queen and king. Did you ever see them?
When we were there, it was the end of the school year and the students were riding around town in the back of trucks singing and yelling, and they would stop at monuments around town and run around in circles then meet with family members.
Do you know more about it? How did the tradition start? Did you do that too?

Sorry I don?t know when this started, but I remember it from my childhood, this is only a students tradition. And I have not done this way in my education.
