So, since we last spoke to you guys we have managed to get the waste tank sorted, well kind of sorted… It still bubbles up now and again but not so much anymore.
Also we are now in Denmark, having left Germany later on yesterday. We’re heading further north and strangely, it’s getting warmer (although this may not be weird to those living in Australia!)
We left Germany after staying the night in Flensburg, a nice little harbour town. Our overnight stop was on a small spit of the harbour, which we only found out in the morning was next to a sewage works! It didn’t smell at all, which was lucky, for in this heat any smell rapidly turns horrible!
Sunsetting in Flensburg
The town of Flensburg itself dates back to the 1200′s and the town has a bit of a time warp feeling to it. One moment you could be standing outside of the througholy modern invention of McDonalds, the next you are negotiating yourself through a small alleyway and into a small side street, with bright yellow buildings either side. This old world architecture hides another modern invention, the internet cafe!
The sunset was absolutely beautifully on this evening. Our “next campervan neighbour” described it as being almost as good as the sunsets he had seen in Africa, although he also pointed out how little the sun looks up here in the north, something I had never thought of!
Well after that night we headed off in the morning (or mid-day ish) to find some more bits for the campervan and we also plugged in our two door speakers that we have been waiting ages to do.
Then we shut the vents, turned the coolbox on, turned the isolator to the “on” position and off we went to Denmark.
As if in anti-climax Denmark was only a couple of kilometres away. So – hello and welcome to Denmark it was for us… we had our new course plotted and set for Dalby, on the central island of Denmark.
Stay tuned to hear more tomorrow (yes, I’ve figured out how to do delayed posts)
Happy travelling
and please leave a comment, even if just to say hi!
