Fyn, Denmark
After a quick march though Germany (which we'll be going through again later) we found ourselves on the island of Fyn Denmark. It's not very big so we had to start looking for a camp site early. We were fortunate to wind up at a place called "Base Camp" ...
Fredrickshaven
... by the end of the day after 5 different rides I had once again reached my goal of making it to top of Denmark. I arrived in a place called Fredrikshaven, a nice little coastal town and ended up camping on the beach overlooking a beautiful fading sunset. ...

Hope to see you again Denmark!
Our stay in Denmark has unfortunately come to an end! Denmark has surpassed our expectations, not that we ever truly know what to expect! We had heard that the Danish can be quite reserved but we found the opposite to be true. Everyone was so friendly and ...
Faaborg / Nab
We drove to Faaborg in glorious sunshine - so glorious in fact that we were both a little uncomfortable with arms burnings so had to keep reapplying sun lotion while in the car! We had decided to stay at Nab Camping just south of Faaborg (the ...
Egeskov Castle and Gardens
Another beautful day and another sightseeing diversion on the way to our next stop. This time a stately home (or castle) and gardens called Egeskov. We had a lot of fun going round two of the four mazes and completing the tree-top walk, ...
Wedding weekend pt.1
... . We finally arrived after 1:30 a.m. and had to be up at 7:00 in order to catch the 1:00 ferry at Fynshav, Denmark. I wouldn’t have gotten much shuteye anyway. The place just seemed unclean in ways I can’t quite put my finger on. The ...
Another day at sea...
... one today, this time on the open see. Couldn’t see which country it belonged to, but we were off the coast of Denmark. I guess they were friendly… Later we worked out and then got ready for dinner at the Italian restaurant on the ship. It was ...
Nyborg

THE FINAL CHAPTER

Odense
Aterrizamos en el aeropuerto de Billund, allí donde Raynair nos dejaba. Es un aeropuerto pequeño en mitad de la península de Jutlandia (única parte de Dinamarca que no es una isla), un lugar llano, muy verde y lleno de bicicletas por todas partes. ...
Nyborg, August 14, 2007 - Tuesday
... on it even if I didn't see it myself. Certainly, on Torvet there was Rådhus, built out of red bricks as befitting in Denmark, then a number of relatively old houses and over there, across the moat, the remnants of the castle, one of the oldest in ...
Svendborg, August 14, Tuesday
... , I decided to go on further south, to Svendborg. I was again lucky with the connection and train arrived within just a few minutes. Denmark is not a big country and Funen is one of the smallest islands in such a small country, so in some twenty minutes I ...

Egeskov, August 14, 2007 - Tuesday
Going on foot along the edge of the road in the direction of Egeskov, I was thinking how good it was to be so completely free, not depend on anything except most basic needs, and be able to afford oneself such periods of complete freedom. Around me, ...
Odense, August 13, 2007 - Monday
... For the first time again after twenty five years, I was in a possession of an Inter-Rail train ticket. Railway network in Denmark is obviously well developed and efficiently organised, trains between any two major towns run on the hourly basis, so I ...
Sur les plages de la Baltique
En guise de magasins de biére nous avons atterri au paradis des pêcheurs GéGé nous n'avons photographié seulement que quelques centaines de leurres sur les 5000 en magasin et on ne parlera pas des 10000 cannes à pêche et autres ...

Dia corrido... mas nem tanto. Dormindo tarde, acordando cedo para pegar o aviao. Mas antes de sair ainda tivemos tempo de tomar um "expreso" original italiano preparado pela mae de Laura. Pegamos um aviao para Londres, e tinhamos que esperando, no ...
On to Denmark
... Japanese hadn't built one just a meter longer about the same time. They live in the tiny town of Volstrup on the island of Fyn in a beautiful thatched, half-timbered house built in the 1800s. The whole place is a delight of old and new--the low ceilings ...

Did not feel like stopping for photos of the scenic route sorry. Mostly farming anyway but lovely windy roads for me to bike ...
Ha ha went thorugh Middlefart!
Man these roads are straight! Ideal if you own a Harley or a train. Super smooth but sooooo straight. We have decided that getting lost in the smaller country roads is definately the way to go. Very nice! We went to visit the Hans Christian Anderson ...

Short Study Tour: Inmates and Fishing Villages

Short Study Tour: Egeskov Slot
... nbsp; Is the duke really going broke? Also, it's by far one of the most expensive (and disappointing) tourist attractions in all of Denmark at $30. Remember, you only get to see half the castle. It's almost as much of a rip off as Tivoli ...
AFS camp i Ringe
En lille tur til Ringe på Fyn til en workshop om Menneskerettighederne og om hvordan de er relevate for AFS. Det var en ok workshop, ledet af spansk Maria, som for nogle år siden var på udveksling i Ægypten. Det var egentligt ret spændende at læse ...
