From wooden ships to tomatoes (Everyday Adventures in North Jutland, week 7)

Læsetid: ca. 7 min.

Here, behind the old school in Testrup, is a nice shelter site with toilet and shower.

It was Sunday night when we arrived at Vesthimmerland Municipality, so the first thing we were looking for was a place to stay.

We checked on our shelter app if there were anywhere in the nearby area with a shelter, cause they are mostly located in areas with beautiful nature and many times there are also toilet facilities attached.

We found a shelter with toilet in Testrup, where it also looked like we could park the Turtle and drove there.

We enjoyed the silence by Glenstrup Lake without any people in the near.

The first thing we did when we came to the Mariagerfjord Municipality was to drive to Glenstrup Lake and park there. We’d bought a couple of ice creams on offer in Netto and now we wanted to sit by the lake and enjoy an ice cream and a cup of coffee.

The red tower in Byrum aroused old memories in Morten.

It was a Monday morning late August when we sailed with the ferry to Læsø. Actually, we had planned to take the morning departure, but on closer inspection this departure was sold out. We hadn’t considered the possibility that the tickets to the ferry would be sold out since it was out of high season, but obviously it’s been a big hit that the Læsø ferry has put prices down by 50% outside the high season. So either we had to wait until the evening to come to Læsø or we had to get up early and sail in the morning. Of course we chose the last one, so we could get the most out of our stay at Læsø.

When we reached the island, we immediately headed for the easternmost part of the island – Morten would be sure to reach as far out on the island as possible and then it was best for us to start there, cause we know ourselves well enough to know that we can quickly be occupied with something and therefore there’d be a risk we never reached all the way east, unless we drove out there immediately.
