On the seventh day we took a train to
Helingor/Elsinor where Hamlet supposedly
procrastinated and where we experienced
the only unpleasantness of the visit.
It's a fine harbor city with lots of ferry
activity and old houses.
The castle had a very effective historical exhibit
in the form of staged photographs depicting the history
of the Danish monarchy.
 |
| The castle |
 |
| Combination bath and coronation |
 |
| Gay tiger hunt? |
 |
| Period Dress |
 |
| Royal "Portraits" |
 |
| Typical royal bloodshed |
 |
| Superb Tapestries - amazing what weaving skills those Kings had. |
 |
| Photos of actors involved in Hamlet productions at the castle. |
 |
| Pencil decor at food hall |
 |
| Good salmon meal at Korn Restaurant. This followed our walkout from another restaurant where rude waiter refused to explain menu, served red wine instead of white and said "F**k. you idiot" when we left. |
 |
| Typical old houses |
 |
| Sky silhouettes |
END
That waiter's behavior certainly seems uncharacteristic to the city and the region, thankfully.
