Travel log
Today was indeed mostly a travel day: we left Blokhus at 930 and arrived in Gillelege around 1630. It didn't help that we arrived two hours early for the ferry and decided to check-in as we arrived... which kind of blocked us in the ferry waiting line. Oh well.
The travel, including the ferry, was uneventful, despite somewhat more traffic than we had seen so far.
Our hotel room has a fantastic view over the sea - and we can see Sweden from the window. (Later this evening we also saw the MSC Virtuosa sailing away, which was fun.)
We walked to the train station and back, walking on the beach on the way to the station and on the path above the beach on the way back. The beach is very different from the one in Blokhus: less surface, less sand and more pebbles, and also no cars!
Had dinner at the hotel (salmon rillettes, veal and potatoes, chocolate fondant), and went outside again for the east-er and hence earlier sunset - which was actually not a total fail, we did see the sun dive in the sea, even if it was behind clouds! It was actually very pretty (but windy.)
