Monday, June 10, 2024 – Travel Day from Copenhagen to Lisbon

Travel Blog 1 Minute

I got up this morning and said goodbye to Annie for now and Peter took me to the Metro station where I said goodbye to him. Both Peter and Annie have promised me that they would come to Denver for a visit.

I had some time to kill in the Copenhagen airport so I spent a good part of it eating Danish pastries.

The pasteries here are so good. I found out from Annie that my grandfather Marinus was not only a fully trained Danish baker but he was also a pastery chef. That is a pretty big deal.

I flew from Copenhagen to Manchester on Ryan Air. Not a bad two hour flight. Because England is no longer in the EU, I had to exit the airport and go through the whole customs and security check to get on my Easy Jet flight to Lisbon.

The Manchester airport is really old. The security check is in the basement and is really grim. It was a real cattle call. I would recommend avoiding the Manchester airport.

After I finally got to my gate and boarded my plane we had an uneventful 3 hour flight to Lisbon.

I am at my hotel in Lisbon having a glass of wine and relaxing after a long travel day.

That’s it from Lisbon. I hope you are having a great day wherever you are.
