Sweden is where one part of the family came from many generations ago and now it is my turn to visit where they came from.

Danish Cookies and Such

Where the years go, no body knows...

But more years ago then I want to admit, I took a bicycle trip to England. That trip involved biking the canals of England and Wales while sleeping in canal boats. Then more recently I took another trip to Europe that involved bull dodging, bike cheering and camping in 11 countries.

This next adventure of mine, will combine biking and outdoor camping, two things I truly love. And as the adventure countdown turns from weeks to days, I continue to find new information that makes me even more excited about the adventure.

For anyone who wonders why someone might want to visit Denmark on a bicycle, then they probably don't know about Danish cookies and such.

So it's been confirmed, Denmark does actually have Danish sugar cookies but where do you sleep and what do you see? Well, they make it easy in Denmark with an abundance of websites in English incase you forgot your Danish.

My first day in Denmark will involve flying into Copenhagen, unpacking my bike and biking 40kms north to Helsingor, DK. In Helsingor I hope to camp(7.50 Euro) and catch a ferry(26 Euro) to Helsingberg, SE.
