Goodbye Denmark, Hello Sweden

After taking Rapi to the Fiat doctor it transpires he/she/it needs a new part to make the airbags work, but will take 2 or 3 days to get it, we are never in the same place for 2 or 3 days, so will continue safely and sort it when we are back in England.

On to Roskilde, the ancient capital of Denmark followed by the present one. In the ancient one we visited the Viking museum, a working museum where you could see craftsmen, and women, using traditional tools to restore replica ships. There were the remains of 5 original ones housed inside, and the BBC were filming for a 90 minute documentary on Vikings to be screened next year (we won't feature). It was then up the hill to the cathedral where 39 previous kings and queens of Denmark are buried, photographs could not do the enormous brick built building justice so you need to check this out if interested.

We then headed for an aire at Copenhagen, probably NOT the best aire in the world. Having said that, we were about the 23rd arrival at a place that only takes 10, so you just have to take what you can. We didn't see as much of the capital as we would have liked but that's the way it goes sometimes. As we traversed the Oresund Bridge towards Sweden we could see The Turning Torso at Malmo so we reprogrammed the satnav and headed for it. Then north to the aire where we planned to stay, but it was full of windsurfing types so continued another 30 miles to our 1st Swedish campsite, and glad we did :-) The good news - an 8 lane 50 metre pool, the not so good news - it doesn't open until 6th June!
