Good Weather and working bikes prevailed the other day and we took a ride out the east side of the Odense Canal to the town of Stige. It was our first real ride here in DK, and it was great. Because we were on a dike and along a canal, it felt a little like the Netherlands, but it did not matter. Ride we did. We reached the town, and after a little poking around, we boarded the smallest ferry in Denmark (see below). Restricted only to foot and bicycle traffic, it travels less than 100 m across the canal (10 kr per adult).
I would like to say that the ride was interesting, but it wasn't. And that is agood thing. Still fun, because I had never been on a bicycle ferry before.
On the other side of the canal we headed north onto an island called Stige island. There was some nice open space there, and we sat and watched the fjord. We saw another strange event happening - Danes of various numbers in little boats performing some sort of nautical rally. It was quite funny, watching tipsy Danes boat along the shore toasting each other as they went out to a buoy and back.
