Still at the Palace Hotel. WEnt to several fu places One especially Mrs Dessau told us of. But after we had seen others went back to Bangs, which is really the most "swell"establishment- and bought the short jacket we liked in the first place. then we went to Friendrichborg palace,where we went in. A huge place with mucH to see. Orders of the White Elephant. etc. IN- Took pictures of the storks on the chimney tops. They return these nests about May 8th every year. WEnt to a vehyrm charming palace- a resturant where we had a view of the castle, looking over a lake. then we proceeded to Friedensborg palace, the summer r Residence of the King. We were allowed to see just a series of rooms on the lower floor. All wrapped up in covers and the curtains all covered up. OLD FASHioNeD BUT NICE To elsinore -but did not go in.Called KronbergCastle Drive back along the coast.Lots of bicycles- many with little children clinging on the back. One little boy calmly eating a sort of ice cream cone- while his mother rode along with him hanging on. Again we wandered over to Tivoli and had a simple meal over there. and went to bed early as we had a days jaunt before us for the next day- to bournhiolm , the danish Island. An air plane to get there!
