Submitted by Christina Conte on the 2013 spring semester DIS (Denmark’s International Study Program) program in Copenhagen, Denmark…
This past Monday and Tuesday were my last official days of class, which I simply cannot believe! Right after my last class, a few of my friends and I headed to a nearby park to celebrate! After a few final exams and a presentation, it was once again the weekend. On Friday afternoon, I had lunch in the King’s Garden, which is a large garden outside of King Christian IV’s Rosenborg Castle. Now that the weather is finally nice here, there is nothing more the Danes like to do than to be outside, especially in one of their many parks! As the second to last weekend in Copenhagen, I spent the rest of it enjoying the finally nice, summer weather that was much delayed in Denmark this year. I have been very into biking while in Copenhagen, which has led me to some very cool spots that I would not have found otherwise! As a little study break, one of my friends and I biked about five miles to Damhuskroen, which is a beautiful lake I pass on my way to DIS, for some soft ice and a stroll around the water. It’s so hard to imagine that this coming week is my last one in Copenhagen!
