Nyhavn - Copenhagen

While walking around the center of Copenhagen, Lisa and I wanted to find the canal area lined with colorful townhouses. The area is called Nyhavn ...but we definitely were not pronouncing it correctly and confused numerous people as we asked for directions.   : P

...But we found it! Lovely area. One side of the canal is lined with restaurants and bars... the other seemed more quiet with storefronts and what looks like homes.

Wooden ships docked in the canal (which is very close to the harbor):

Cold but loving this city!

canals of Bruges

Bruges has many canals that weave throughout the city. It's very pretty and many tour boats glide through the canals with tourists inside.

A statue as a dead end of one of the canals:

A tour boat is passing by...

I love the detailed shapes of the homes... and the turquoise doors!!
