Next stop – Amsterdam! In a similar way to Copenhagen, Amsterdam has evolved around a series of canals. The canals are hundreds of years old and the history of the city can be seen everywhere, particularly if you take a trip around on a canal cruise. There are heaps of museums and tourist options and one we took (which will please Ms Svein) was the Van Gogh Museum. I’ve enjoyed Amsterdam way more than Copenhagen, which was a little slow and limited as far as being a tourist was concerned. Amsterdam is much bigger, livelier and historical and I’m just disappointed that I only have three nights here.

Friday will see me board yet another plane to jet back to sunny Manchester. Nice one!
