Well, the system works. My dock time has been rescinded thankfully and justice has been served. I guess they probably got me mixed up with another Dan. I’m happy that I’m in the clear. I guess that’s all there is to say about it.

Well, the M/V Explorer is getting real close to Korsør, which is pretty lame. It would be so much better if we were actually docking at Copenhagen. Oh well, it is what it is. I’ve got a pretty nice itinerary lined up, I think. This was really thrown together about an hour ago. As best I can tell, this is what’s going to happen. I’m taking a Semester at Sea trip orientation of Copenhagen and Christiansborg Castle. After this, I’ll return to Korsør. The next day I’ll head back to Copenhagen with a friend, skipping an orientation of Korsør SaS trip. I’ve got a hostel there with some friends where I’ll spend the night. After that I’m going to head to Sweden for a night, then back to the M/V Explorer.

I figure I’ll have some fun here. At the very least, it should be interesting. Outside of planning for Denmark, not much happened today. I still got a good nap in and an hour tanning up on the deck; you don’t want to overwork yourself. I got an essay for the Global Studies class turned in, I think it’s pretty solid, hopefully the TAs do too.

We also had an intramural basketball game. We lost the game, but we won in the end because they technically forfeited due to a lack of players. Not exactly the way one wants to win, as we have yet to win an actual game, but hey, at least we’re 2-0 in the scorebook.
