A very impressive boat at the marina.

Another cracker of a day, not a cloud in the sky and pleasantly
warm. A little slower getting moving this morning…left overs from yesterday!!! We
wanted to spend another day in Denmark and our last in Scandinavia before we cross
back to Germany so did a look on Park4Night and found this marina at the small
town of Stubbekobing and what a find. I think this is one of the joys of motor
homing in Europe, we never know what sort of place we will find, some are much
better than others and this is one of the good ones.
We took the motorway south and once we passed through the
busy 4 lanes of the city section it was a great drive, lots of rural land and
harvesting of the wheat was well underway. Stubbekobing, according to Wikipedia has a
population of under 2500 people. Stopped at Aldi and picked up a few supplies
then down to the marina, to our parking space, a great spot, and with a nice
breeze blowing the 26 degrees were extremely pleasant. I walked into town this
afternoon and so impressed with all the older buildings, and read these are
from the 18th century and many are merchants houses. But the highlight for me was spotting a sign
advertising an exhibition at the small local museum of knitting designs from
two local designers along with garments from Kaffe Fausett collection. Had a
great chat with Inger, a local lady who was looking after the exhibition for
the afternoon. It really made my day. Continued
walking through the town which was so peaceful and felt like I had stepped back
in time.
This is perfect weather and really enjoyed sitting outside
soaking up the sun. Ended up having a great chat with our Danish “neighbours” talking
over a few wines!
