Frederiksberg Have

Last week we passed our level 3 Danish test (yay!). It doesn't seem to mean much, we're still in the same class with the same book and the same teacher. It's been going okay and now we're on our own for the summer. We get a summer break and now hope that we don't forget everything.

Last weekend it was very hot (by Denmark standards, not Texas standards). On Sunday we headed over to Frederiksberg Have for a stroll. We had heard it was nice, so we took the Metro over to check it out. I've attached some pictures. It was a large park with lots of trees, some clearings and a palace adjacent to the Copenhagen Zoo. Lots of people were out picnicking, reading, or just soaking up the sun. We saw lots of herons which inhabit the park along with the usual swans, geese, and ducks. By next year we'll also be able to see elephants thanks to a zoo expansion which will give the elephants more roaming room and also make them visible from Frederiksberg Have. During our walk we stopped at shaded benches to cool off and people-watch.
