Class trip to København

Hej igen folks!

I will write in english because it is late and I have a lot to say.  


My class went to Copenhagen for our class trip this year.  It is not as big as most the classes who travel all over Europe, but it will do.  There are a lot of things that we did on the trip.  
On the first day we arrived in the morning and checked into the hostel.  After that we walked around for a while and looked at the buildings.  Then we went to the government building where we saw a meeting the government was holding(equal to our president).  While we were inside it started snowing.  The night was free to do whatever we wanted to in the city, so it was a late night full of parties.  I did some karaoke in a bar, it was funny.

The second day was almost horrible.  We walked around the whole morning with a tour guide who talked (in danish) about the different historical buildings.  It was freezing cold and everyone was tired from the night before.  After the tour we went to the (work museum).  It was also extremely boring and all in danish.
This is a pretty nice building, you should have seen the garden on the other side!
That night we ate together at an all you can eat buffet.  It was pretty nice and I was very full.  Then we walked to the theater where we all saw Phantom of the Opera (in danish).  It was very good!  Very very very good!  The set was amazing and I was surprised at how many different places they used as a stage.  Fog machines made the stage into the river.  A huge chandelier hung from the ceiling and had the ability to fall onto the stage.  People fell through trap doors, lights came up through trap doors.  The phantom came down on the ceiling ornaments.  The last scene was the most amazing though.  It literally turned into a magic act on stage where the phantom put a cover over himself and when the girl came to him and pulled off the cover which was right after he put it on, he was gone... I have no idea how that happened at all.  They also shot real fire on stage.  AMAZING.  That night I decided to get to bed early and was asleep by midnight I think.

The last day we walked more.  We went to a pre-history museum.  It was pretty good and I got some good pictures there.  After that we walked around and relaxed until we had to catch the train home.  It was a very nice trip.  I am glad that it was short though, because I need my sleep and my showers.  Did I mention the hostel had 2 showers for the whole floor and no hot water... I literally could not get into the water.  

That's all I have for now folks.
