We got home from Munich late Friday night and I was absolutely exhausted from traveling all week, so I just headed home for the night. Saturday morning (the morning of my birthday), I was woken up bright and early to the sound of "Happy Birthday" by my host mom and roommates. In traditional Danish custom, we all sat down and had a big breakfast of eggs, bacon, bread, pastries, and tea! It was delicious. My roommates got me a few bottles of wine to help celebrate my 21st and my host mom got me a daisy necklace because it is the traditional flower of Denmark.
During the day, I met up with friends and we headed to Tivoli Gardens because it was all decorated for Halloween. It was so nice to see all of the pumpkins, straw, and scarecrows. I absolutely loved it! We rode the swings which has broomsticks on them (it was so cute) and the rollercoaster before grabbing some cider to continue wandering the park. It's so cool that there is a theme park in the middle of the city.
After cooking dinner and relaxing a little, we all met up again in the city to go out and celebrate my finally being legal in the states. It was such a fun day and I am so happy I got to spend it in the city that I get to call home this semester!
Love,
