Maybe you should check out that mermaid-shaped rock in Copenhagen, you know, or not..

Dont miss Potsdam near Berlin. And dont forget to visit Peaches ;-) I have a buddy in Berlin - drop him a line and see what he says. He sings and writes his own songs. Youll like him: Aljosha, [email protected]
If you get near my house, drop me a line.

I wasn't impressed by the little(!) Little Mermaid statue in Copenhagen. The people are very nice, though.

Be sure to check out the bohemian park in the Jewish Quarter (Scheunenviertel) in Berlin.

That currency cheatsheet is really handy! What a great little tool.

Well, there's always the Wall -- or what's left of it -- to see. Get a couple of Breslauer and maybe a Thuriger with Pommes (these are all great wurst). For dessert go to a pasty shop for a Bienenstich. Then go to your favorite Kneipe and have a shot of freezing cold Stoli (no ice!) and a Becks (or a Schultheiss). Repeat this last step five or six times.

Le Corbusiers Unit d'Habitation Typ Berlin outside Berlin is a mustsee in modern architecture.

The resund Bridge is pretty cool. It has the longest cable-stayed main span in the world for both road and rail traffic.

You might want to visit the Bundestag (that's our house of parliament), where you can climb up the glassdome which was designed by Sir Norman Foster.

in copenhagen, you might want to visit (not sure of spelling) christiana, a sort of free zone within the city where drugs are openly for sale and people have built their own very interesting houses - it's an amazing place.

In Copenhagen, make sure someone takes you up to the Louisiana, the great modern art museum outside of town.

Don't go and see the little mermaid. You'll be dissapointed. Instead take a trip to Christiania... Well... it's already been described

Be careful about going to Christiania right now. The government -- in all its wisdom -- has decided to crack down on this "outside the law", thorn-in-the-eye-of-the-establisment place here. It seems that the open trade of weed/hash/cannabis -- but no hard drugs -- can no longer be tolerated. It's not to say atm. what the outcome of the campaign will be this time.

However, the surrounding part of the town, known as Christianhavn, can be very refreshing for a afternoon strawl in the spring sun.

For a first-time visitor to Copenhagen i also recommend "Pisse-renden" (roughly translates to "The urinal" or "The open Sewer"), which despite it's name is a very nice area with lots of narrow streets, trendy shops, old buildings, cafes, restaurants and funny-looking people. Ask the locals for directions -- it's allways worth while a visit.

Having visited Copenhagen this weekend allow me to recommend Hansen's Kkken & Bar. Top notch cuisine in a not too fancy and
pretentious atmospere. Nice & comfy.

If money is short, I recommend a visit to The David Collection, which has no entrance fee. The collection has a unique blend of late 18th/early 19th Century art and Islamic art. It's situated opposite a park and close to many other "sites of notice".

Just a few suggestions. The list goes on. Copenhagen has a lot of things to offer, whether you're interested in art, history, design, architecture, food, shopping etc.

For example, if you see an AIM window peeking out from behind your browser and you click on it, that window will come to the front, but the main application window will not. The Mail.app/Activity Viewer is another example. The Aqua system of layers works well in many instances, but not in all. Thank goodness that the Dock is always there to come to the rescue. I know that clicking on an application icon in the Dock will always result in not only the application coming to the front, but also any non-minimized windows associated with it. And if the application is active but no windows are open, clicking on the Dock icon should create a new window in that application.
