I decided that a logical next stop would be Denmark. For those who don't know there is a very convenient bridge that leads from Malmo (Sweden) to Copenhagen (Denmark). This makes it easy to go from Sweden to Denmark. I decided that I would visit 3 cities in Denmark: Sonderborg, Aarhus, and Copenhagen. I chose these cities because I had friends in all of them to visit.
I started with the train to Sonderborg which was pretty easy. I met a nice Canadian girl at the Copenhagen train station, on my way to Sonderborg. Since we both had an hour or so to kill after getting our tickets we grabbed a coffee and then parted ways. After a kind of boring train ride I got to Sonderborg and met up with my friend there. We explored Sonderborg and also I had a chance to make a day trip over to Germany (Next blog post!). Also I had the chance to
Sonderborg is a really small town but its quite nice. They have a lovely bridge, and some nice beaches and area's to play volleyball and swim. Here are some pictures:

Apparently Danes love their flags... (There was a bike race this week) |

A windmill near where the last battle between Germany and Denmark occurred. |

A "Castle" ... looks more like a big house I think. |
After that I headed on to Aarhus with a rideshare. In Aarhus my friend lent me her apartment which was great. She lives in the University so I got to spend some nights in the student bar as well as wandering Aarhus and visiting with some other friends. I also was introduced to an amazing sandwich shop: http://www.anettessandwich.dk/ it was so good I went twice in 2 days. Also in Aarhus is a really cool looking art building that has a "rainbow" path on the roof. Its a 360 degree circle you can walk through that's coloured all different colours. Check out the pictures below!

After this I headed home, the trip to Sweden resulted in me heading to Denmark later then I had planned to. I had offered to bring my friends tent from Aarhus to Copenhagen so I took off and headed towards Copenhagen on the train. I managed to have a couple of beers with my buddy who lives in Copenhagen but I'll have to plan another trip to Copenhagen to do some actual exploring.
