Copenhagen: Wherever you go, don't forget where you came from

In Copenhagen.

This Danish sailor has got it right. With some pride, knowledge and integrity, he's ready to sail the Danish seas. And beyond.

Copenhagen, DK: Home of the Little Mermaid, A Part of Your World

The Little Mermaid. Not Ariel. I'm talking about the Hans Christian Andersen variety here. This Andersen-inspired mermaid statue calls the edges of Copenhagen's Lagenlinie harbor home.

The mermaid is a young woman who is "willing to give up her life in the sea and her identity as a mermaid to gain a human soul and the love of a human prince." She now welcomes throngs of visitors to Copenhagen's harbor.

The little mermaid, at home in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Perhaps she "still" longs to be a part of our world, as she did in Disney's retelling of her story.


Part of Your World (Reprise)

What would I give to live where you are?
What would I pay to stay here beside you?
What would I do to see you smiling at me?

Where would we walk?
Where would we run?
If we could stay all day in the sun
Just you and me, and I could be
Part of your world

I don't know when, I don't know how
But I know something's starting right now
Watch and you'll see, someday I'll be
Part of your world

Copenhagen, Denmark: Nyhavn Canal

Copenhagen. A chic, sleek, classy city of exceptional living.

Copenhagen's famous Nyhavn canal is a must-see for tourists. The canal area served as the home to famous Danish writer, Hans Christian Andersen, for some 17 years. The canal also serves as a start/end point for Copenhangen's fun and informative boat tours - a great way to see this sea port city.
