Copenhagen Revisited

Posted on April 18, 2023April 29, 2023 by bollingerbabe

Got up around 8.30am to find the Bolette docked in Copenhagen, Denmark, in exactly the same place as we had been docked on Arcadia in December. It seemed strange to be back in Copenhagen again so soon (and indeed this is our fifth visit here) but there’s always plenty to see and do in Denmark’s…

All Around Aarhus

Posted on April 13, 2023April 26, 2023 by bollingerbabe

When we woke up at 7.30 this morning, the Bolette was already docked in Aarhus, Denmark.  We had never been to this port before so we were looking forward to our half-day tour.  Going out onto our gigantic balcony, we could see a cathedral with an interesting green roof and spire in the near distance. …

Canal Boats and Carlsberg

Posted on December 22, 2022January 6, 2023 by bollingerbabe

Copenhagen and Carlsberg

Posted on July 20, 2013April 14, 2022 by bollingerbabe

Friday, 19th July 2013 It was another bright and sunny day when we woke up this morning, with nary a cloud in the sky.  But there were little black clouds forming above our heads as we tried to shake off the depressing fact that our holiday was fast coming to an end.   🙁 We…

All Beer in Aalborg

Posted on July 11, 2013April 13, 2022 by bollingerbabe

When we woke up this morning the Black Watch was gliding slowly along the river, just about to dock in Aalborg, Denmark’s fourth largest city situated right on the waterfront.  We hadn’t booked any city tours today as the ship was docked literally across the road from the town; we could see a pub called…
