Yeah. I was there in '85 while doing the whole train/backpack thing around Europe that was so popular with us college kids back then. I had never been that far north in my life. I was there for a couple of days starting on July 7th or so. It didn't really get dark enough for fireworks.at Tivoli until near midnight, and it started getting light so early. One of the days was darn cold and damp for what I was used to in July. Long pants, sweater and windbreaker on.
