Scandinavia Farewell

It was time to move on, first from Norway to Denmark, and also from Scandinavia, too.
We enjoyed these northern countries very much indeed, especially Sweden, where we spent time with old friends, Jack & Mildred, from our shared Malaysia days, and Norway, for its majestic scenery, and new friends, the Crockers.

Stavanger has its sculpture, both modern and ancient, one beside the harbour, and the other inside the Railway Station, as we were about to board the train to go down the coast, to catch the ferry to Denmark.

There are a lot of rocks in Norway, and they are so much a part of the landscape that after a while, you don't notice them... until you get to Denmark !

The country is softer and flatter, its harbours carved out from... sand !

Aarhus was our transit city in Denmark, as we were en route to Germany.

But Denmark still had some special moments, with the harvest getting under way, and architecture to surprise...
