It’s
lovely sunny weather, so we’re spending a day or two in the Als Sund and
Augustenborg Fjord.
We passed
the attractive town of Sønderborg …
… sailed
up the Als Sund …
… and
anchored in a little bay called Ketting Nor …
Caroline
set off to explore in the dinghy …
… and
took some nice photos of the boat – what is Charles thinking of … ?! The sea was absolutely full of jelly-fish –
it was like a thick soup – ugh! He didn’t
actually dive in!
Caroline
and I went for a walk ashore …
… and
enjoyed the wildflowers and lovely views of the fjord.
Later we
motored up to Augustenborg, just to have a look at it – you can’t see the big,
ugly disused grain silo in this picture!
… and
anchored for the night in a small inlet called Sebbelev Noor which was flat
calm.
However,
by the next morning it was grey and windy … so we got the anchor up …
… and
sailed back to Sønderborg. Caroline and
I went for a walk to the Dybbøl Windmill …
… around
the redoubts and fortifications of 19th century Danish-German wars …
… along
the coast path – a lovely walk in warm sunshine and blue skies with fabulous
views …
… and
back to Sønderborg …
… where
we treated ourselves to an icecream, which came with a very sweet, soft meringue
topping available in lots of flavours – I had passion fruit – which covers the
entire cone like molten lava. Apparently
it’s called ‘guf’ and no icecream is complete without it in Denmark!
We then left
the boat in Lystbådehavn Marina for several days, while Charles went off to
meetings in Italy, Caroline returned to UK and I went to Copenhagen.
