Lyø extended

We had a short 'palaver' (the Dutch word for a captains meeting) this morning. This is not a very formal occasion: as we are moored in adjacent berths, we look at each other and say "what shall we do today" (well, in Dutch of course!):





The decision was to stay an extra day. The weather was good and the island scenic and needing further exploration.

This is one of the old farms as seen from the boat:





Our walk first took us to the church with the circular graveyard:





The design of these churches is typical for these Danish islands, we know that we'll come across many more in the next few weeks.

From there, we walked to the 3500 year old burial mound.





If you hit the top stone with a small rock, it sounds like a bell, hence the name 'Klokkesten'.

After visiting this feature, we continued along the shore from where you have nice views over the surrounding water and the islands in the distance:





This evening, during and after drinks on 'Jildou', we followed the Netherlands - Mexico football match via a live feed. Of course we were thrilled to see the Netherlands win in the end!

Faaborg tomorrow.
