Travel to Copenhagen

I have made it to Copenhagen!

Two long flights and a bit.. The first flight was good. Couldn't get much sleep however. Saw the Lincoln Lawyer and Money Ball. Both good movies. Shanghai airport was a bit disappointing. It was really big but didn't offer much. All the water fountains only had warm or boiling water.

The next flight to Zurich was long. Zurich looked incredibly beautiful. The plane flew reasonably low for a long time so I saw quite a bit. Then one of the highlights of my trip was the view from the plane when we left. It was just before it got dark on a beautiful winters day with the Swiss mountains in the background. Absolutely beautiful!   

I arrived last night just after 7pm. Feels like a dream... Two girls from the university came to pick me up. They had home made signs with my name on them. Was such an awesome welcome! It was strange however that I did not have to show my passport or go through any security at the airport. I just walked straight through, picked up my luggage and walked out. The girls said that its how it works.

They then took me to my residence. Wow! It is incredibly nice! Very quiet though. I don't think many students are here yet. The three of us then went to a little bar (not much bigger than my room) which was packed and full of smoke. It reminded me of a rural bar filled with the locals. It was nice to have a cold beer and talk to some people after being by myself on the flights.

I slept well last night and woke up at 8am. What if I dont have any jet lag? Is it possible?
