Day 2 - Hamburg to… somewhere just outside Malmo, Sweden?!



Complacency is never a good thing, but so far we have never been in a position to feel its surge. We arrived at the second camping ground just outside of Malmo, only to find that the reception had shut there hours earlier! We were now faced with not using out camper van properly for the second day running, meaning that we had to waste another 2 hours driving around the city, stopping at every hotel to hear the all to familiar, "no dogs allowed"! 

Mike (our Cameraman) had a lot of wind to let off, Isaac (our Editor) refused to hit a key on his keyboard, blaming it on the lack internet and charging problems and Jimmy Gore’s resemblance to Huey Lewis was taking a battering… a bad hair day for the big fella. However, on the plus side, Osa had bounced back from getting an upset tummy from a dental stick and, after initial fears that he had an accident on the mat indoors last night, it emerged that someone may have actually kicked his water bowl afterall!


Today we hit the road from Hamburg, taking a pleasant ferry from Puttgarden in Germany to Denmark. The Wicked Camper continued to chew out more gas than us four blokes and the dog. It would be great to finally get to use the van for its proper use; here’s hoping! The next stage is Stockholm, where we depart first thing on Tuesday morning to Turku in Finland. But our questions are: Does the roof tent actually work. Will the gas stove light up our lives?  Will Mike eat something healthy?  But hey, the sun was shining for most of the day and we had the pleasure of crossing the impressive 10-mile bridge linking Denmark and Sweden. Dartford Bridge? You’re kiddingGoodnight until tomorrow.
