blonde1981 Posted January 30, 2013 #76 Share Posted January 30, 2013 We love to try beer while in other countries. What can you suggest in Copenhagen that we try out that isn't Carlsberg? I have had it and liked it before but was looking for something I might not find here in the State. Also is there a dish or pastry we should try out? In Venice it was Cuttlefish and Greece was authentic baklava. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blonde1981 Posted January 30, 2013 #77 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Oh I just found this from a really old post. Very helpful to anyone curious about beer in Denmark. http://patto1ro.home.xs4all.nl/denbrew.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danish viking Posted January 30, 2013 Author #78 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Smørrebrød (open faced sandwich) is one of the most danish dishes and you can get that at many places. Ida Davidsen is probably the most famous place but there are alot of others and I would like to point alot of places out but I am in charge of a Indoor soccer tournament this weekend so all my time goes with this but I promise you that I will show you some restaurants in next week. About the beer, some good local beers are Nørrebro Bryghus and Vesterbro Bryghus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danish viking Posted January 30, 2013 Author #80 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I am very busy, there are 14 teams from fanclubs from all of Denmark. We are both hosting the soccer tournament but also an afterparty with 74 persons and sleep over for all the teams from Jylland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danish viking Posted January 30, 2013 Author #81 Share Posted January 30, 2013 But if there are any questions then just fire away, I will catch up on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ2002 Posted January 31, 2013 #82 Share Posted January 31, 2013 The first ship to dock at the new cruise terminal in 2014 is Legend Of The Seas on the 2nd of may, the name is C330. C177 Nordre Toldbod and 190 Langelinie Pier is also in use. The only ships that are using the freeport terminal (C254) next year is Eurodam, Ryndam, Seabourn Quest, Marina, Horizon, Seven Seas Voyager, Crystal Symphony, Azamara Journey but they are not using this terminal on all dates. Just to be sure I am not mistaken... is the NCL Star scheduled to use the Freeport Terminal on June 3, 2013? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffandMelissa Posted January 31, 2013 #83 Share Posted January 31, 2013 And i can´t even write in danish Its Refshaleøen. :o The timetable is here Mandag - Fredag means Monday- Friday Lørdag means Saturday Søndag og Helligdag means Sunday and Holidays http://www.moviatrafik.dk/Timetable%20Resources/991-0991-121012-r.pdf Danish Viking, I hope the tournament was a success! I am sure you are exhausted, and here I am bothering you with another question. On the harbor bus schedule you provided via PDF, do the harbor buses run mid-day on Monday through Friday? I see on the schedule a "boxed in" area under the Monday through Friday schedule with no timetable. If we were to use the harbor bus, we would likely use it from 1200 to 1500 on a Wednesday. Thank you again for your help! Melissa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danish viking Posted February 1, 2013 Author #84 Share Posted February 1, 2013 (edited) @ RJ 2002 The new cruise port will first open in 2014. The tournament is first this Saturday so no time to relax now. @ Jeff and Melissa It just mean that they have fixed departure times in that timeframe. If you see 2 numbers they will sail every 30th minute according to the numbers shown in the box. So from Nordre Toldbod they will sail xx:10 and xx:40.

blonde1981 Posted February 1, 2013 #86 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Is Bus 26 fairly reliable? I've been using the map you posted and making walking and bus routes from it. It seems like Bus 26 goes to most of the tourist areas that we want to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danish viking Posted February 1, 2013 Author #87 Share Posted February 1, 2013 The bus schedule is -/+ 2 minutes, so if a bus is set to arrive at 14:10 it can arrive between 14:08 and 14:12 but it can get stuck somewhere on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffandMelissa Posted February 2, 2013 #88 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Danish Viking, Now that I've got all the logistics worked out, now the most important questions! We plan on getting off the ship as soon as it is cleared...800-ish. Catching bus 26 to the Central Station area. We plan on going on Richard Karpen's copenhagen walking tour, which doesn't start until 1030am from Tourist Information there. So, we will have a little time to wander around. Any recommendations for a spot to have a coffee and pastry around there? We don't mind walking a bit. Also, any place around there where we can purchase Toms caramels and/or Anton Berg chocolates? :D Thank you again! Melissa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flounder8 Posted February 2, 2013 #89 Share Posted February 2, 2013 How do we find out what pier our ship will be at? We are sailing on Brilliance of the Seas and will be in Copenhagen on July 16th, 2013. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danish viking Posted February 3, 2013 Author #91 Share Posted February 3, 2013 @ JeffandMelissa There are lots of places in and around the central station that serves a good coffee. The places closest to the central that has a big variety of chocolate is Superbrugsen and Irma and probably also some kiosks in or around the station but its impossible to find a list of all the kiosks in Copenhagen. Superbrugsen Halmtorvet Halmtorvet 25 1700 København V Irma Codanhus Gl Kongevej 64 1850 Frederiksberg C Irma City Vesterbrogade (closest to the central station) Vesterbrogade 46 1620 København V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C245 to 254 is the freeport terminal on a map its Sundskajand Orientkaj. C330 is the new cruise terminal that opens next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danish viking Posted February 4, 2013 Author #97 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I must admit that i was looking with one eye on the Computer and one eye on my very own X-Files marathon. Generally i think that they have to many (Commercial) breaks for my taste but i have it the same way with Superbowl like the wither games, I don´t care at all about it but somehow i need to see it anyway. :-) But i thought you did something useful while the Power was out :-) But the half time show i always looks forward to was mediocre at best, Only Black Eyed Pears has done a more worse job.
