This is the third in a series of blog posts documenting our 2023 summer holiday: a wonderful road-trip around Denmark, Sweden and Norway.

Day 3: July 26, 2023

The third day of our holiday was one we were all very excited for – the first theme park of the trip as we planned to spend the day at the iconic Tivoli Gardens.

A scenic view of a tree-lined sidewalk beside a decorative iron fence adorned with blooming flowers. In the background, there is a historic building with a tall spire visible against a clear blue sky. People can be seen walking in the distance along the pathway.
A child in blue shorts stands next to a large bronze sculpture of two lions engaged in a fierce pose. The sculpture is located on a grassy area near a road, with trees and buildings visible in the background. The sky is partly cloudy.

A city scene featuring a large historic building with a tall spire, set against a blue sky filled with fluffy white clouds. In the foreground, there are bike lanes marked with symbols, and a street populated with various vehicles, including a bus. The scene captures the vibrant urban atmosphere.
A vibrant outdoor stage is seen in a park, with people walking along a pathway and gathering on the grass. The sky is partly cloudy, and trees surround the area. Several steps lead up to the stage, which is decorated with banners.
