My flight home tomorrow just got cancelled and I got rebooked to Sunday. What do I do in Copenhagen tomorrow?

Also, what’s going on with the Copenhagen check-in counters. Do they not have airline specific desks? Do I just go to any counter?

Get drunk and walk around

See if Noma has any last minute reservation openings

I have 2 connections home, Munich and Chicago. What happens if I make my connection in Munich, but my bag doesn’t. You have to collect your bag in Chicago & recheck for the connection. What happens if your bag isn’t there? I’m assuming they let the airline connect your luggage through later without you.

Just carry on no matter what (advice excludes travel with several dozen children)

Drive McKenzie pass and hike to Proxy falls. (pro tip: come in the early summer when the road is closed to traffic and bike it)

Also the well known brewpubs like Deschutes and 10 Barrel are good, but there can be a wait. I prefer McMenamins. Or Bend Brewing. Or... there are many options.

The usual recommendos. (Popular with good reason, but you won't find solitude or parking spots on weekends)
- Tumalo Falls and North Fork trail. Beautiful hiking up the creek beyond the main falls.
- Green lakes trail. Nice family hike. mosquitos.
- Any of the lake resorts would have fun stuff for the family (Elk Lake and Cultus are closest. Or if you drive McKenzie, loop back on 126 and you'll go past a couple more that way)

If not traveling with family I would rent a Tallboy from Pine Mountain and ride the crap out of it. (see bendtrails.org). If with kids maybe the trails near the town of Sisters.

I’ve got a few days in Bend coming up. This looks good. Any other suggestions?

I floated down the river in Bend and it was fun. I got a t-shirt at Bend Brewing that an absurd number of people compliment.

You guys ever heard of Zingerman’s before in Ann Arbor? Food network and stuff and like $20 sandwiches. It was a bit insane.

Also, they make their own pickles and cola. Cola sucked ass.

That’s basically what airport terminals are at their core.

@steve dave, tell me where to have lunch in Omaha tomorrow. Staying near UNO. Going to a wedding tomorrow night, so booze at lunch is preferred if not required. Also, pre-bar crawl Saturday brunch recommendo in Bensen?

steve dave · « **Reply #12271 on:** October 24, 2019, 02:05:11 PM »

If you’re near UNO go to Dundee and hit either Pitch or Darios OR to Blackstone District and hit anything there. Don’t know Brunch spots in Benson but go to Krug Park.

Fly/sail over to the C island and do the ATV tour that goes to the Aloe Vera Plantation.
