Denmark Trip - Day 22 - Tved, DK

Summer House, Tved – Woke at 7 AM and finished cleaning up the summer house and packing stuff for our return trip home. Lotte arrived around 7:30 AM and we all had bread, cheese, and coffee. Lotte knew we were out of milk for coffee and brought some oatmeal milk that was a perfect substitute.

Lotte and I put the IKEA bed frame together in the spare room. We didn’t have any instructions but thankfully it was straight forward. A little later, the Internet guy arrived and was finally able to fix Lotte’s Internet by replacing the modem/router. We all drove to the Ole Carlsen’s store and Carol bought some local Danish honey to give as gifts.

The shop owner, Ole, suggested Lotte take us out towards the bay where his mom has property. So, we drove down the road to a gravel road where we turned and drove towards the bay through some beautiful pastures and marsh land.

Lotte told a funny story about how her mom could see when people visited Ole’s mom and how she would tell Lotte and her siblings how Ole’s mom gets more visitors than she does. Carol and I left to go to Bill and Bente’s house around 1 PM. We stopped for gas in Ronde (548 DKK = $74.27, 32.6 L = 8.61 Gal, $8.82/Gal) and arrived at Bill and Bente’s around 2 PM. It was nice seeing Bill and Bente again. We chatted on their patio and enjoyed some Danish Strawberry Cake and coffee. Bente said she had family coming to visit and left to pick them up at the train station around 4:30 PM. Carol and I stayed and chatted with Bill a little longer and left around 5 PM. We got back to Lotte’s house around 6 PM and Lotte treated us to a delicious veggie omelet.
