Today was our final day at Copenhagen and Denmark, so after we checked out of the hotel (and stuffed all our luggage into a single locker somehow), we ran to the National Museum and visited a special exhibit about vikings! It was very detailed and featured a lot of information and artifacts from different aspects of vikings' life: raids and war, power and glory, belief and ritual, society formed around the ship. There was also some dress-up opportunity, and I even got to wear a chain mail that weighted 9.5 kilos!
We only had about an hour at the museum, unfortunately, and then we had to run to the hotel, pick up our bags, go to train station, buy tickets to the airport, ride to the airport and fly to Bergen, Norway
. Alekro couldn't get a flight to Bergen though (because he had to wait until the last minute, of course %) ),so he was flying to Barcelona from the same airport at the same time. His flight was leaving from a different terminal though, so we said goodbyes before the security, then went to find our gates. Security was really painless, even though Norway is not the part of EU, US could learn a thing or two from them...
While Julia and I were having a lunch before the flight, Alekro popped out from somewhere and started running around our table %) Apparently, even though he was leaving from a different terminal, he had to go through the same security, so he found us near our gate. Then we went to the plane and Alekro nearly boarded with us :)
The flight was fast and uneventful, with a mandatory yelling and kicking child behind our seats. Then we finally landed in Norway! See next entry...
Viking time!
