Denmark is like a secret little place with its own special language.

Helsingør, also known as Elsinore, is a port city in eastern Denmark. Overlooking the Øresund strait, the 15th-century Kronborg Castle provided the setting for Shakespeare’s “Hamlet.” On the pier is “Han,” a polished steel sculpture of a man.

I went to Copenhagen for a long weekend with a friend, we got there Friday evening late, and after checking in, we walked past a strip club, sex shop and a series of prostitutes to get to an all night kebab joint for a very late dinner.
