WHERE IS MELANIA? / OMG Adventure

Part 2 of our OMG Adventure follows the further travails of Donald Trump. Someone came up with having his sycophants and potential Veep candidates show up at his trial.  Yesterday, two U.S. senators and a rep, plus.  Today, Speaker Mike Johnson and Vivek Ramaswamy.  Son Eric has been there, and so has his wife, Republican National Committee co-Chair Lara Trump. But no other close family has come. The biggest missing piece is Melania Trump.  All  reports show that she won't show .  Too  bad, for jurors are human, and her daily presence, holding his hands coming and going, can make that crucial difference.  Perhaps she can be enticed to show up at the end for some reward.  After all,  their marriage has become a business arrangement . Oh, in case you missed it,  Michael Cohen again was on the stand today , with Todd Blanche of the defense attempting to poke holes in his story.  He seems always to be at Trump's side outside of court. No action scheduled for Wednesday.  Final grill

TIVOLI GARDENS

 It was cloudy, but the walk to Tivoli Gardens was only about 15 minutes away, so braving the blustery cold, off we went. Cost $20 each if you do not ride anything. We were met by my Blue-bar Pigeon and his friends.  He then flew a bit into a tree, so we followed him there. We had not seen much of cherry trees in Japan, but saw a lot in Copenhagen. There, of course, were other flowers. Brussel sprouts and leeks.  See that black bird hiding in one of these photos? And more birds. As we walked back to the hotel we saw this restaurant. Ordered a pork ramen with some local beer.  Excellent!!! To Tivoli and back took 6029 steps. We leave tomorrow for Amsterdam, and the next day board the Tauck riverboat for a tulip cruise to Budapest, Hungarian, run by Viktor Orbán, good friend of Donald Trump. This is one of those days when I had an earlier posting only a few hours ago, am sending this second one now, and won't do this again for another 20 hours or so because of travel. -
