This flight lands at a Royal Danish Air Force Base about
20 miles from Copenhagen. There are no MAC facilities at
this base; passengers handle their^---------------------•---
own baggage, eating and traveling ale cl°se<i from 1 to 2 on Satur-
arrangements prior to departing. ^ay afternoon.
All baggage is checked by cus-
toms on arrival and departure. No
more than one quart of spirits
and 200 cigarettes per adult is
allowed to enter Denmark.
Transportation
Civilian transportation from
the base to Copenhagen can be ar-
ranged by the duty officer, this
will cost about 50 cents per per-
son. Once in Copenhagen you
must be in civilian clothes. The
uniform is for travel only.
Transportation in Copenhagen
includes rail trolleys, cabs, and
buses. Taxi fares are very reason-
able and the cost is usually less
than a dollar to any point in the
city. Tours can be arranged or
one can see Copenhagen on his
own.
There is much to be seen in this
beautiful city: Copenhagen City
Hall, The National Museum, Stock
Exchange, Rosenborg Palace, the
Royal Residence, Amalienborg
Palace, and many other places too
numerous to mention. All stores
What To Eat
On all trips one has to eat. The
food in Copenhagen is very good
and the prices are reasonable.
Hoof and Mouth disease has
broken out in Europe so, eat only
well cooked food. The monetary
rate of exchange is 6.91 Danish
kronur to the American dollar. As
in all countries Denmark has a
tourist trade which makes some
difference in the prices depending
on the time of year. In Denmark
the off season is from Nov. 1 to
April 1.
Due to the outbreak of Hoof
and Mouth disease, the following
items can not be imported to Ice-
land: plants, uncanned foods, al-
coholic beverages, weapons, eggs,
butter, cheese, or any article
packed with paper fiber, or
straw.
With summer just around the
corner the offer of a free flight to
Copenhagen, which could well be
a once in a lifetime offer, could
prove to be very interesting and
worthwhile.

CHECK WITH YOUR CLUB FOR SHOWTIME
BIG HIT AT KEFLAVIK—An audience of 400 filled the Andrews
Theater last Saturday evening to witness one of the best shows to
appear at the Naval Station in many a moon. The group of 60 men and
women called the Reykjavik Folk Dancing Company put on an un-
forgettable show of folk dances from many countries of the world. These
non-professionals received a standing ovation from the well-pleased
spectators. (Photo by Cline, SN)

SADDLE UP-No, I’m not John, Paul, George or Ringo
but if you scan the adjoining copy of “Where and When”
you’ll get the idea. (Photo by O’Donnell, J03)
Where And When:
Horseback Riding Anyone?
by Ed O’Donnell, J03
Git ’em up, Scout, cinch up your saddlesores and standby
for info on how to get “back in the saddle again.”
As I look out my window I can hardly believe that spring
is officially here. Granted that presently horseback riding
is not the perfect outdoor sport but fear not better days
are in sight.
After a few inquiring phone
calls and a trip across the country-
side I was fortunate enough to
meet a very charming lady who
is more than willing to cater to
the notions of we of the Defense
Force.
Seven “Bali” Horses
Mrs. Heidi Gudmundsson and
her husband have seven Icelandic
horses on their farm called “Bali”
which are available for riding.
After an afternoon consultation
with Mrs. Gudmundsson I came
away with the following facts and
figures and the feeling that the
Gudmundssons were glad to be
helpful.
The first hour out on one of
the Gudmundsson’s trail-trained
horses is 100 kronur and every
extra hour is 80 kronur. The
horses are all completely gentled
and one of the Gudmundsson’s or
their assistants will accompany
your party. Day long trips around
the beautiful coastline near Bali
come at a cheaper rate.
Road To Bali
The area in which Bali is loc-
ated is on a peninsula just outside
of Reykjavik. The farm itself is
quite easy to locate. On the way
to Reykjavik you will come to an
intersection where the new road
ends. There you will see a sign
which says Reykjavik to the right
and Akranes straight ahead.
Take the Akranes road and fol-
low it for approximatly two miles
and you will come to two white
buildings with a road between
them. Turn off on that road and
start looking to the right for signs
leading the way to Bali. You’ll
find it a mile or so farther down
the road.
What To Do
To make reservations for a
jaunt across the countryside call
Mrs. Gudmundsson at Reykjavik
51639 and I’ll guarantee she will
be happy to make reservations for
you.
Enough of this horsing around.
Next week I’ll give you arti-
facts” on the National Museum
of Iceland. It’s quite a place and
well worth seeing.
