As I arrived at the market which is not too far from my hotel, I could already smell the faint smell of fruits, sausage, paint and many more unrecognizable smells. The street was full of stalls and street performers. I had a conversation with one of the sellers who were selling fruits.
"Would you like to try some strawberries- they are very fresh and sweet."
"I've heard that one too many times to be true."
"Please lady I am not lying this is really sweet!"
She forced a strawberry into my hand and I ate it. She was right, The strawberry were actually sweet.
"A box of strawberries costs $5 but I give you $3 ok?"
So I bought the strawberries and ate it along the way.
Later on I went to the Tivoli Gardens which is just a few minutes walk from the flea market. There was a giant fountain, a recreation of a chinese house and a random proud white peacock walking around with pride around it. There were a lot of tourists taking pictures of the peacock as well as the other buildings and some local people were walking their dogs.
I was minding my own business walking around when suddenly I heard a high pitched yelp. Apparently, I had accidentally stepped on a lady's toy poodle's foot. She started swearing at me in Danish and gave me dirty looks while picking up her dog and walked away.
Later on I decided to go to the Ripley;s musuem. Ripley's had a lot of weird extraordinary displays. There was a love throne where you sit on it and it will shine up three words that describe you, a harp with invisible strings but still makes a sound, a room that will make your head spin from the bright rotating mind blowing illusions and so many other things.
After that I went back to the flea market and decided to buy more of the strawberries (they were seriously heaven on earth) and take a stroll around.the market. A lot of people tried to offer me hats and paintings and there was a group full of people dressed as native americans playing their tribal music. I watched as skilled artists drew portraits of people in under 10 minutes with great detail.
When the sun set I returned to my hotel and watched the beautiful sun set from my hotel balcony.
