Day 12, Saturday, 25 Aug: Copenhagen

Since we didn’t have any internet service yesterday or this morning, we weren’t able to research where we were going or where we might be able to stay tonight. As a result, we decided to wing it and see what happens. The only definitive plan was that we were headed to Copenhagen.

As we drove along in Germany heading towards the Danish border, we noticed a significant difference in landscape from Belgium and the Netherlands. While it is still very flat with a lot of farmland and windmills (the modern kind), there are many more large trees and forests. Once in Germany, many of the motorways (autobahns), have no speed limit except in construction zones. Near some of the towns and cities, there were speed limits between 6 am and 8 pm but unlimited afterwards.

We crossed into Denmark via a ferry. It was a very smooth crossing of about 45 min. The ferry we were on is a hybrid ferry which claimed to be the most eco-friendly of all ferries. I never quite figured out just how the hybrid function worked, but included in it’s environmental friendliness was the scrubbing of the exhaust which succeeds in removing 90% of the sulfur emissions, drastically cutting down on the air pollution. Upon disembarking in Denmark we were immediately greeted by immigration officials and required to show our passports, something we haven’t done since we left Iceland.

Along the road to Copenhagen we stopped at a rest area with food and maps. While deciding our next stop, some helpful Germans gave us a few suggestions. Armed with that info we headed to Koge. We arrived to find the tourist info center closed 2 hours earlier than expected. Then it began to rain hard. We found a place nearby but it was full. (We were in better shape than the 2 bicyclists we encountered who were also seeking shelter as we could take refuge in our car while we figuring out Plan B.) We found a vacancy via the internet and drove to a town called Soro, about 50 km west of Copenhagen.

Our efforts were rewarded with a lovely B & B, Fredens Hus. Translated it means Peace House. It is set in the country amongst farms and itself was once a working farm. There is still at least 1 horse on the property and swans on a neighboring property. The proprietress is a young woman dedicated to spreading peace and joy and Peace House is intended to be a refuge for those seeking to get away from it all. For that reason she purposely doesn’t have internet access for her guests. The setting was indeed peaceful and we took advantage and just chilled out after a very trying day. Tomorrow we’ll take the train into Copenhagen and explore the city.
