After arriving at Copenhagen Airport, I had some time to grab a snack and a drink before catching my train. I saw WH Smith and decided to stop by.
I wanted a Coke Lite. I saw a ton of beer, including Carlsberg, next to the Coke products. I have never seen anything like that before. It was almost 9 am. I didn't feel like beer.
I had some willpower. I saw a chocolate croissant. I wanted it, but the chicken skewer was calling my name. I needed some protein to keep me sustained for a bit.
I was pleased that the man behind the counter spoke English. I asked for a chicken skewer and proceeded to pay for my goodies using my credit card.
He advised that I could either pay in Canadian funds (the machine defaults to the currency of whatever country your credit card is from) or in Danish funds. I went with Canadian, entered my PIN, and paid for my purchases.
The Coke Lite hit the spot. I was thirsty. The chicken skewer was fine. It was seasoned nicely, but the chicken seemed a bit rubbery at times. Still, I was glad that it erased my hunger pangs.
As expected, buying stuff at the airport is expensive. My two purchases were just under $10 CAD. For the convenience of going in and coming out two minutes later with what I needed, I have no complaints.
