A Tivoli Time

We walked through the largest crowds to date on our way to the Tivoli.   The crowds did not thin out at the gates as the lines were very long.  No worries,  the Copenhagen card allowed us to get in the express line and zip right through.  The Tivoli has been in existence for 175 years.  1843 is when it opened and it is the second oldest amusement park in the world.  There is a definite old world charm to it.  We strolled, drank tea, nibbled on tasty snacks and mentally prepared ourselves for the most extreme thrill ride experience...the train ride.  This train was slow,  small and did not have any medical disclaimers attached to its description.   It was so innocuous that the conductor had a difficult time getting patrons to get out of the way of the oncoming train. 
This is a mobile sausage cart.  The noise that the red motor makes is loud

Fancy ride!
