Climate                 September is a difficult month to forcast in
and clothes             Denmark. We may have a very beautiful Indian
                        Summer, but occasionally it rains so you are
                        well advised to bring a light coat - and an
                        umbrella just in case.
                        Dress will be informal on all occations.
