touring denmark.......


dutch sailing barge up here


£10k will buy a nice one! Got me thinking.
dinner for two - cheaper dishes and only 1 cheese dish (for Gill!) Twice cut (i.e.seconds of the starter) Grad vlax was particularly good so Gill says, I was quite happy with my simple soup and bread.
Cheese consisted of Berries , radishes, honeyed nuts, onion and some DBlue cheese - mixed with Cognac

Atmospheric
More atmosphere








A land of islands; so far wwe have visited Zealand (CPH, Ringsted),Falster, Lolland, Langeland (Rudkobing), Funen (Odense). Weather has generally been very kind though it threw it down in Svendborg which meant out coffee stop was protracted. Nice ferry trip yesterday about 40 mins (£20) from Lolland to Langeland. If you like flat, this is certainly the country! there being excitement at the merest slope. Might make it good for cycling were there anything much to see but the odd historic building is about as good as it gets outside CPH. W would of course find the numerous bike shops of interest - all manner of exotica being for sale. Beyond that the bakeries are worth a look with some intersting looking breads the like of which the UK just does not see. Photos attached are of our journey and tonights meal in Den Gamble Kro, Odense a traditional Danish resturant about 200 metres from the birthplace of HC Andersen.
He got out as soon as he could - I wonder if he knew something? Tomorrow we will explore and tell. G&g

I couldn't not try the Danish blue, but did leave half of it in respect to my cholesterol levels & waistline.
The rye bread was butter fried just in case....
Can anyone give an explanation of the boiler thingy?

Excitement so far today has been getting out of bed, but I am hoping that things will improve!
