After a great night's sleep, we continued on to cross the border to Germany which was uneventful being within the EU.
The difference now is that the relaxing 50 and 80 km speed limit in Denmark has now turned into 70 and 100km and the roads stay the same: narrow one-lane roads. In centrum of villages, you're supposed to know it's automatic 50km because there are no 50 signs just town signs.
Our first stop is in a town called Husum a small quaint town that was first mentioned in 1252 when king Abel was murdered.
Like most towns on the North Sea Husum was always strongly influenced by storm tides. In 1362 a disastrous storm tide, the "Grote Mandreke" flooded the town and carved out the inland harbor. Before this date, Husum was not situated directly on the coast. The people of the city took advantage of this opportunity and built a marketplace, which led to a great economic upturn.
Between 1372 and 1398 the population of Husum grew rapidly, and two villages, Eas and West Husum was created
I tried really hard to scare some life in that creature but he was stonefaced
This poor seagull was stuck behind the glass, and Mom wanted to help him out but too many ladies screeching
This could be a good golf cart I thought, Let's check it out....... Mom............Moooooooomm
Hmmm..what is there to say about his sign? Not much Mom said
At the town square, there was a market just like at home, and Mom bought a hat to keep the wind out of her ears.
The sandwich shop serves healthy herring........Mom is grinning thinking about what most of her friends say about them
They say eeeeuuwwww she said.
Mom, let's get one and I'll be the judge if it tastes good.
Mom reminded me we just ate and said I'll eat anything no matter what which I can't deny. I'm a true gourmand
Mom tried to convince me this says "U are a schmuck"
Hmmm.....so why do they sell watches and jewelry?
Looks like Mom has been here with her yarn and crochet needle
After the walk around we continued to Gluckstadt and the ferry over the Elbe
the wait was a couple of hours but no problem, Mom made coffee and we took a walk looking at the sheep.
So we got on the ferry last and Mom went out to check so Lucy didn't hang her tail outside.
And yes I always take over the driver seat when Mom leaves. I'm the co-pilot so I can do anything I want if Mom isn't behind the steering wheel
We arrived in Gluckstadt and continued on to Bremen but we ended up stopping at an RV store to park for the night
Maybe Lucy will be sold by the time we wake up...........haa
They just provided this service to park and sleep, we got up and left before anyone had awaken.
We are now in Bremen parked at an RV parking outside the centrum because Lucy is not allowed to drive in the centrum because she has a diesel engine and is considered bad for the environment which we can't deny
We'll be biking in a little later but first Mom is going to make some calls to the WiFi provider that are not very good............
It's a dreary day overcast and chilly
but life is still good
