Cruising - Copenhagen

The first city we visited was Copenhagen Denmark.  In Copenhagen there is a temple for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  The temple was one of our first stops in Copenhagen.  I have seen pictures of this temple before and loved it's very unique design in comparison to other temples and so it was fun to see it in person.




While in Copenhagen we also visited the 'Church of our Lady' where the original Christus statue is housed.  Our Church has many replicas of this statue at temple visitor centers all over the world.  (I personally love this statue and the welcoming feeling of the Savior standing with outstretched hands.)  Along with the statue of the Savior there are statues of the original twelve apostles.  Emerson had fun trying to figure out what each of the apostles were holding in their hands.


While on our journey to visit different sights in Copenhagen we enjoyed walking through a couple parks.  They were very beautiful and green.


Before getting back on the ship we stopped to look at some smaller boats as well as feed some birds.


The day started out a little cold and rainy, but by the end of our stay in Copenhagen the sun was shinning and it was lovely and warm.
