Copenhagen Zoo The old elephant house There were lots of elephants to admire.  And this one even did a little dance.  Sibling love at the zoo! These polar bears were HUUGE. Really cool to watch too.

Sunday afternoon attire  I like this one :) Terrible quality but you can get the gist... Goofing around with different options... The final choice
