Well, you asked for it! We're running a day behind the actual day when putting things up so apologies for that.
So Monday was as follows - Fejellebroens obvious & only attraction - Then, across to Odense for a splash of culture in the form of Mr.H.C.Andersson, Damned tourists! Bang Boder? His town house, Overstraede, the workhouse, Another street on the trail leading to the river & the washplace where his mum scrubbed his grollies. - Some proper culture, the "Albani" Brewery, they do a beer called "Giraf", can't think why & finally the Storebaelt road bridge linking Fyn to Zeeland.
Oh son, it looks very quaint.....love those dinky little houses.

They are aren't they? Wherever you go across the various Islands you'll always find some really pretty houses. What's even more surprising is those that have managed to survive in big cities surrounded by new modern buildings & homes.

The day started with us flitting over the Storebaelt to Zeeland (it's a big old bridge mind) - We then scuttled up to Helsingor & castle Kronborg (Old Willie boys "Elsinor" in Hamlet) - Then a bob over to Sweden (Helsingborg) as you do! - Tootle down through Sweden to Malmo & onto another even whoppingly bigger bridge. the Oresund back to Denmark - Then down to Koge to visit & Brewery & Distillery (which was closed when we got there ($$%#*!) - Then on our way home a quick skeg in at Korsor.
Well. as for Wednesday ..... so much planned but not achieved, aye well, such is life! Anyways on with the happy snaps.
At Spodbjerg harbour there's a couple of cutters, this one supplies the quayside fish shop - Cormorants on a navigation pylon for shipping approaching Tars on Lolland - Aalholm castle Nysted - Nysted Marina & village - Wish my Ford looked this good - Town Hall Nysted - Close up of the clock - Yet another pretty street in Nysted - Memorial to a B17 & crew who crashed into the sea in 1944 (near where the wind park now stands) - Now then Cinders, get back in the coach it's going home time! (well it is Denmark after all )
