If you ever come to Denmark, Copenhagen, dont hesitate to go to the two biggest malls in town. Fisketorvet and Fields are great shopping malls. They have everything, except sex-shops (I think...).
When at Fisketorvet, you have to try going to the cinema. It is a huuuuge place, great audio and awsome quality movies. Really awsome *Ish sad that she still hasnt been able to convince her mum to go there*Link: Fisketorvet
Unfortunately, the website is only in danish.
In Fields there's lots of shopping to do too. But whatever you do, take the Metro (Danish underground/sub way thingy). Parking the car costs a bundle and is only for a limited amount of time, if I remember correctly. Link: Fields This one is also only in danish, I'm afraid.

That's debated everywhere I go... I'm doing a project on Scandinavia (moreso medieval, mind), and if you go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scandinavia, you can see why. It's a debated topic, mind, so be wary of what you're reading, and check out the talk page, too.
(I don't know if you want to add that to the linklist, Maya, as it's so debated... however, I do have this, also from Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_English_words_of_Norwegian_origin )

I believe "Scandinavia" = Sweden, Norway and Denmark.
While Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland and Finland are the Nordic countries ("Norden".)

Is it just me, or is there some kind of connection between Sweden and Finland?
As far as I can tell though, Finland is not Scandinavian culturally.
