Other info on the trip to follow. Went to the Mikkeller bar which was quite cool but pricey (lol scandi alcohol taxes) - the cherry wine they had was amazing but it's probably not family-friendly stop. Nyhaven looks class and is well worth a spin just don't go for food or drinks there (think temple bar tourist trap).
Other highlights were exploring the Rosenborg Castle (preserved condition from Renaissance I believe), and museum (royal treasure/artefacts there under armed guard). The star-shaped fort at the harbour is worth a walk around (little mermaid nearby also). Christiania which is really cool but maybe not be that interesting for kids (must-see for adults). I wasn't too bothered with the little mermaid statue, it's tiny and mobbed by 100's of tourists. Tivoli Gardens theme park is meant to be cool but it was closed when I visited. Loads of bicycles everywhere, even more than in the Netherlands so be careful with little ones. Pretty much everywhere you go there's an amazing blend of old and contemporary architecture. Lovely city to walk around aimlessly in.
