Last night was our last in Denmark until November. We had so much fun in Copenhagen with Mai, Andreas and Jonna! We tried to convince them all to visit us in Oregon soon; I really hope to see them again in the states and I would love to show them around Portland and the island. Downtown Copenhagen was beautiful; I will be posting pictures as soon as I can. I am so glad we went to the soccer game the first night we were there; everyone should go to a game while they are in europe! We brought our own beer from the apartment to the game (we could walk around with an open container - like Vegas.) And watched it outside the stadium on a HUGE projection screen. SO MUCH FUN! Afterwards we went to a bar next door to celebrate a great game. As you can tell from my previous blogs, Kirst and I had a bit too much fun :) But not too many people can say they've been hungover on two different continents so therefore we feel more accomplished.
For the past few days we have been mapping our route through Western Europe and discovered that we have some extra time! We want to find a WARM, CHEAP place to lounge on the beach for a week - any suggestions? The emphasis is on "cheap" since we don't have a lot of cash.
We are currently on the last train to Neumunster, which is where Christoph is meeting us. I am so excited to spend a few days with him in Northern Germany before heading south for Oktoberfest. The trains are difficult to get used to! Sometimes you need to reserve a seat and sometimes you don't... Sometimes we think we don't but then someone will kick us out of "their seat." And the times between trains is insane! We had to switch trains within 4 minutes today - and our first train was late! Anyway, I hope all is well in the States and I'll write more soon!

tell me you are going to end up hitting the mediterranean! That's where you have to go for those great beaches...and warm weather. I recommend Spain or Portugal. (staying towards the west end of Europe) I don't know when your week of extra travel is, but as long as it is later in the year like this, you should start to see discounted-off season-prices based on the reading I have done. Steve and I are planning a Spain-France-Italy trip next summer, but I would love to go to Portugal and drink Port wine and sit on the beach. If you need a little more adventure in your trip, go to Morocco.
