København/Denmark - waterside

There are different ways to approach a foreign city. To me it is very special to explore from the waterside. Here are some pictures of the danish capital, which we like very much, because life is very much connected to the sea and being on the water. ...

For today we stay in Middelfart and take a 15km hike along the shore. We pass the castle of Middelfart which is private property but people are aloud to walk through the park. A little house can be found there, in which assumedly H.C. Andersen has written "The little mermaid". The path leads...
