The Years is nearing the end....

The 28th was the day that we got to use one of our gifts from Christmas which was a turpas plus pass, which gave us an unlimited amount of rides at Tivoli Theme Park in Copenhagen. we already had entry since we had tickets to the Crazy Christmas Cabaret later that night. We spent the whole day there going on as many rides as we could fit, and looking at all the Christmas displays they had. Frejas parents met up with us later on so that we could get dinner at a sushi place before we watched the show. Since there was a waitlist to get in we headed down to the aquarium to kill some time, where we figured out that our turpas plus pass got us more than just free rides, we also got aquarium entrance, a free spin at one of the show games, a free honey cake and Virtual Reality on the Demon. after we finished at the aquarium we headed to dinner before going to collect our honey cakes, which come with icing and stuff to decorate them. Then it was time to head to the Glass Hall which housed the Crazy Christmas Cabaret with a star wars theme this year and was called Planetrump, with characters such as Ronald Rump, Luke Skystalker and Princess Liar. the show was one of the best I have ever seen. After the show, we still had time to go on rides since the park didn't close until 11pm so I went on the demon since there was no line at all. the first time I did it with the Virtual Reality then the second time I didn't so that I could watch the view, which was really pretty with all of Copenhagen lit up.

The 29th we headed back out to the farm since they were home today and we fed the horses more carrots and went for a walk with all the dogs and saw quite a lot of the property before heading home again only to leave a couple hours later to go to one of the scout leaders houses to plan for scouts next year.

The 30th was the day we went to explore Copenhagen which is a beautiful city. our first stop was the Hans Christian Anderson Statue and museum as well as the city hall. we then drove over to the Opera House and parked there to catch the Ferry over the river to continue our tour. we headed Nyhavn, which means new harbour where we got waffle sticks which were covered in Nutella and nuts, we ate those on the way to the Royal Palace to watch the changing of the guard ceremony, before heading over to the little mermaid statue and the old military fort that was nearby. next stop was somewhere for lunch which ended up at Joe and the Juice, the same place we ate lunch in when we were in Tivoli. we then headed up the Round Tower which is where they used to observe the stars since it was tall enough to get out of the city lights. the last stop was the Lego Shop and a souvenir shop before heading home.

The 31st, the last day of the year was full of fun. First, we headed to get some extra fireworks before Fraja and I got dropped off at the party, we had fun talking and then watched the queens speech and a show called dinner for one before the clock struck midnight which is when we jumped off of furniture and onto the floor and celebrated with some champagne. next was the fireworks the Rie, Gen and I had brought. We were setting them off until about 1:30am when we headed inside to start plaing Dungeons and Dragons, which for me was the first time ever and was lots of fun. we all got into bed after 4am and were all asleep at 5. I got up later at 11 and had to wait almost 3 hours for everyone else to get up for breakfast and more dungeons and dragons. then we headed home to end our New Years celebrations by lighting the last of the fireworks.

This is the mess we had made from the fireworks.
