"Something is rotten in the state of Denmark"

Well, no -- other than hordes of pushy tourists, Denmark seemed lovely!  We arrived late to the port of Helsingborg, Sweden after battling heavy headwinds all night long.  Just across the water, four kilometers away, is Denmark and the town of Elsinore, where "Hamlet's Castle" -- properly known as Kronborg Castle -- is located.  It was an easy ferry ride over there (because we just can't get enough time on ships!), and we toured the 16th Century castle and the charming town along with 168 other passengers from our ship.  Amazing how many of them had absolutely no concept of waiting in line or waiting their turn to see whatever the tour guide was pointing out.  The vast majority just shoved their way to the front and elbowed others aside!
