Cruising through Copenhagen

We have arrived! The first day in Copenhagen has been a hectic one, but also a fun one. After a pretty tiring 14 hour trainride things started off quite hectically this morning. After meeting our friends/hosts at the station we directly split up to pick up on loose ends and things that hadn't gone as planned. After collecting Margaret, our conference badges, settling down in the new accommodation and a frantic exchange of new phonenumbers, Suus and Margaret went off to the final hours of the youth conference at the University, while Suuz and Roy collapsed on the couch of their hosts to recover a bit.

To finish off the day we had a healthy dinner at a restaurant with as much of the group as we could rake together, consisting of Ebrima, freshly in from Gambia, Margaret and the three first arrivals of the Project Survival team. In the following days the group will slowly grow, with Jacomien now sleeping in the nighttrain and Matildah finally being freed from her rediculously long stay in Johannesburg.

Now for some sleep. We'll need it to participate in all the fun and crazy things the COP and Copenhagen have to offer!
