The Amazing Race

Tonight we had a ISUP event dubbed 'The Amazing Race' where groups of students went on something like a scavenger hunt around downtown Copenhagen, trying to find various landmarks and answering trivia questions about them. This task was a little harder than it sounds since the streets in Copenhagen are marked differently than at least the U.S. and more sparsely. A lot of the stops were places we had visited yesterday. Our first stop, which we hadn't seen before, was the Rundetårn ("The Round Tower") which is the oldest functioning observatory in Europe. Instead of stairs it has seven-and-a-half stories of a helical corridor leading to the observatory.

Other stops included Marmokirken, Amaliensborg Plads, Nyhavn, Christiansborg, and Vor Frue Kirke ("Church of Our Lady"). Our last stop was at a bar called the Dubliner, which was really crowded. After staying there for a while, I went back home on the Metro I can back home to finish up some blog posts and get some cleaning done.
