Sunrise to sunset

Before we get to our current location, I would just like to add a bit to yesterday's post by telling about Gåbense. We usually prefer small 'places' to big ones and Gåbense is no exception. The 'rules' in these small harbours are interesting: the harbour master (the boating club member who carried the title for the week) stopped by last night. Handed me an envelope with the request to put the 130 Kroner harbour fee in it and put the envelope in the box at the clubhouse. I was also handed the key to the clubhouse where the toilets and showers were. And the fridge with beer. If I wanted a beer, please put 6 Kroner in the box. When we got to the clubhouse this morning at 7:30 there were already 2 beer drinkers. We just posted the envelope with the money and the keys...

Lyn got up early to catch the sunrise:





The clubhouse at Gåbense:





We then spent 3 hours with a light following wind and a nice current behind us too. We got to Femø before midday. We have been here twice before, last year, and really like the island. The church is very typical for a Danish island:





And the houses are nice too:





The harbour is full on a Friday night. A lot of Danes, they have probably come for the weekend. A few Germans, we are the only Dutchies.

End of the day:





Our plan currently is to take the shortest route to Kiel in Germany via Spodsbjerg and Bagenkop but to 'take it easy'. To start with we'll definitely stay here on Femø tomorrow.
