"Reptilicus" released 1961


Reptilicus, Denmark's only foray into the giant monster arena, was released February 20, 1961.  Copper miners discover a frozen piece of a prehistoric monster.  Of course, scientists studying it inadvertently bringing it back to life.  It grows into a giant reptile and wreaks havoc across the Danish countryside, including the Tivoli Gardens!  Oh, no!

It was featured in Mystery Science Theater 3000 in 2017.

Day 5 (cont) - Tivoli Gardens

We had a very short time after returning to the ship to get ready to leave for the Tivoli Gardens, a large amusement/entertainment park in the heart of Copenhagen.

A Taj Mahal recreation.



A pirate ride.






Don't ask. We don't know what it is. A bear? Elephant? Rhino?





















An amusement ride. James threw up.
























The twin statue of the Little Mermaid that sits in the harbor. But not presently. She is in Shanghai at an exhibit there until November. China sent a large screen TV which sits at the very place the Little Mermaid does in the harbor with a 24-hour live feed, so the Danish can still see their beloved mermaid.
