Finally!

We have finally managed to leave Sweden! Found the spare part we needed yesterday - after a 4 hour detour - and reached Middelfart in Denmark last night. Didn't take any photos last night - think I was too tired - but I probably took enough photos of this pretty town last year!

Today we're heading towards Bremen, a quaint medieval town where I spent two weeks on a German teachers' class maybe five years ago. But first I need to buy a new shell for my cell phone since the old one is broken.

We seem to break or lose somethin every day. One of the shelves in the fridge broke yesterday, but we think we can manage. Don't feel like buying a new one since we have a spare shelf in our garage - at home!

This certainly is a trip of mishaps. When traveling between EU countries with a pet, you must notify customs when entering a new country. We had difficulties last year - oftentimes the borders are not marked, we travelled on back roads, etc. However, we had decided to do things the right way this year. To our dismay, we realised there is no customs check when entering Denmark via the bridge. We have no idea how we should have gone about doing this, but we are now in Denmark, and Ivan's presence has not been notified properly. I do not like this one bit, I just hope all goes well when entering Germany in a few hours.

Karin and Tommy have such a beautiful, turn of the century home with a pretty garden

The bridge to Denmark is looong...

...and it ends in a tunnel. The border is actually at the tallest part of the bridge
