    Some of the track is under renovation at the moment so theres a bus
    from Karlskrona to Kristianstad and then a connecting train to Copenahgen.
    Leaves here around 5am I think so hopefully I'll get to that.

    Cheers to everyone for all the info.

    If you like a bit of a smoke or not Christania is worth a visit. Have a laugh at the inhabitants, not all of whom are friendly. Personally I found the Danish a bit dry.

    Women are gorgeous though.
    And you ask me to help you??!! Man is evil!!!! Capable of nothing but destruction!

    Cheers for all the advice.

    Unfortunately the weather was fairly miserable, I wasnt in the best
    of form and seeing as I was there on my tod I decided not to bother
    staying over and just went up for the day instead.

    Despite the timetable I found on some touristy site, the Carlsberg Visitor
    Center was indeed open on Saturday (open till 4pm). 40 DKK to get in
    (about €4.20) and its a self guided tour with 2 free beers at the end.
    Once you've seen 1 brewery you've seen 'em all but as a Carlsberg drinker
    I had to go for a look.

    I also done a City Tour bus trip around the main sights, cost DKK 195
    (around €24) for a 2 1/2 hour trip. Stopped off at the Little Mermaid
    (fully intact ) and also at the Palace for the changing of the guards.
    The guide himself was fairly good.

    Tivoli was very well lit up but I didn't go in as I was getting the train
    back and didn't fancy strolling around in there on my own.

    I got a strange lifeless vibe off Copenhagen although maybe that was
    to do with the weather and the mood I was in.

    Definitely like to go for another visit during Summer and go on trip along
    the canals and all that.

    No, that's Copenhagen alright.
    No real buzz outdoors, during the winter.
    It's not the entertainment capital of Europe by any stretch of the imagination.
    Have Boot Disk, will travel

    yeah lived there for a year a few years back, nice city, expensive to go out in...but there are cheap bars aswell, like the moose, who have a 2 for 1 offer, works out at 2.50 a pint not bad, considering ya might pay 6 in most of the tourist trap pubs..

    The danes are a very very dry race, the folks in copenhagen a bit arrogant also..Women are class though..

    Christiannia is deffo worth a visit, great place, surreal almost.
    Kennedys Irish Bar in gamelconvej near vestorport is excellent for watchin the footie...cheaper than the other irish bars for drink aswell about 4 quid a beer.
