13 hours Copenhagen

 
 
Two saturdays ago I woke up at Frida's in Malmö with a aching head. A couple of glasses of water and a slow breakfast later I felt human again and we left the apartment to walk towards the central station.
 
After a train ride from hell we arrived at Norreport in Copenhagen. The city was as vibrant and crowded as always, yet the sky peacefully gray. From the station we went north, to Wood Wood museum.
 
I was too excited and shy to take any photos, yet I could easily have spent the whole day in there. Since we only had so much time, we left empty handed and continued walking towards Norrebro.
 
In the area around Elmegade we got stuck for quite a while, running in and out of the small shops looking at clothes, shoes and all the hot danish people. 
 
When it was time for lunch we headed to Blågårdsgade and the tiny, yet amazing Cafe N where I've been a couple of times before. Lots of great vegan dishes.
 
When plates were emptied and stomachs full we moved back towards Norreport and Torvehallerne. Torvehallerne is a big indoors market where one can find everything from fresh vegetables, charcuterie and danish pastries as well as small restaurants and cafes.
 
We also found the popular café Grød's stall, which we earlier after many ifs and buts, had decided to skip for lunch. 
 
Catching a glimps of the clock we noticed time had flown by and that it was only a couple of hours until the shops would close, so we continued south. 
 
When the clock struck 6, it was as if the whole city died. Some tourists even stopped us to ask if it always was this few people in the streets. We wandered about for a while before finding a cafe with wifi and cheap coffee.
 
Later, we ended up having mediocre indian food and taking advantage of the happy hour(s) at a bar nearby. After a couple of drinks, we took the train back to Malmö, a bit tipsy and very tired.
