We're here in Copenhagen at the Marriott. Arrived right on time. It's a funny little city. Not too pretty..especially after Paris, Cannes, etc.

It's kind of depressing. Doug and I spent a delightful night in a 3 by 3 foot train compartment in bunk beds. I awoke my poor husband at 3:30am when I had to use the facilities. I had bolted the door and couldn't unbolt it. Here I was trying to NOT wake up Doug and finding myself getting more and more claustrophobic and I couldn't get the door open. Finally Doug woke up and after a few groggy moments he pushed the jammed door open and freed me. Then we arrived to find Crystal had taken over the Marriott and we couldn't get into our room until 4. We showered in the Health Club and wandered the streets trying to keep amused with museums and crown jewels. Nice weather..very warm.

Finally got our room and it was double beds overlooking roof tops. After being in a cubby hole for 10 hours and wandering the streets for 8, I asked to be moved to a king bedded room facing the water. We had to settle for a smoking room, but we've been apart for 2 months!

I must admit I whined a bit last night. I was spoiled the past 4 nights at our lovely farmhouse room in Provence. Please take down this name -- Mas des Carassins in St. Remy -- it is the best value hotel I have ever stayed in. Utterly charming, beautiful, comfortable, with wonderful location and service and price. You will not be disappointed.

Well, Doug wants to have snacks before dinner and I must sign off...This Marriott is just OK. It is not as good as those on tripadvisor said. I'm looking forward to meeting Greg and Gretchen and hopping on the Voyager!
