Baltic Coast (1 Viewer)

[funflair]

Well after a few days at the Dusseldorf show we are headed North towards Kiel and the Baltic Coast, last nights (2 nights) stop was at Cloppenburg Museumdorf Open air museum.

Nice quiet parking and a bit of town if you want it, open air museum was good for half a day hence the two night stop,

Baltic coast = skinny dipping waiting for pics.
If the weather is good nice up there but the way temeraturers have dropped in France the last couple days may not be so good.
Love the islands of Rugan & Usedome stayed on some Stellaplatz that were peoples back gardens.
Language can be a bit of a problem as being the old east second language is Russian.

There is a public transport ferry service running between Kiel and Laboe. It's about 9 euros for a day rider ticket with hop on hop off points on both side of the Kiel Fiord.

The "push me - pull you" plough is like the ones used in this country which were winched backwards and forwards by two traction engines on either side of the field.

Indeed it is but this one with single blade ploughs to about 2 metres and had two big engines each side.

We are on the Stellplatz at Eckernförde which is West of Kiel on account of the Kiel Stellplatz being full,

Nice enough Stellplatz but at €18 a night it should be, spotless toilet block and showers so a bit posh.

Nice Harbour.

Traditional Kiel Sprat stall.

Yes the sky is black and yes it rained

Martin

 

[funflair]

View from our window,

Or to be really truthful it's from @KayeB window but we are only a couple of pitches down, we are now in Denmark at Mommark, said to the man in the office can we spend € around the area and he said NO there is nothing to buy lucky we bought wine before leaving Germany.

Bit of excitement in the harbour as this came in and they tried to tie it up.

Martin

 

[funflair]

And this could be fresh fish coming in if it's been a good day.

 

[funflair]

Yep pretty fresh,

We are pitched up pretty close to the harbour, and today has been as wet out the sea as in I think

Martin

 

[funflair]

Well I think we have just gatecrashed the local wine club tasting night, they came to our campsite and we were already booked into the restaurant for a meal, it was the flat fish from the previous photo and bloody lovely it was too, anyway all the wines they didn't like came to our table, and yes they were crap.

But a good night was had anyway

Hi Jon

Weather was OK yesterday so car and scooter out for the day, moving on today towards Bremerhaven and yes it's raining again.

Martin

 

[funflair]

Well we left Denmark because it was raining, and it was still raining when got to Germany, we avoided the traffic jams in Hamburg by cutting across to Gluckstadt and the ferry over the Elbe.

A bit tightly packed.

Oh and a two hour wait for the ferry

Martin

 

[funflair]

Today we are in Bremerhaven which is a nice place as long as you like boats, went on a German U boat today, 58 crew

And this is the kitchen 2 hot plates an oven and two small sinks, now you know why German vans have such poor kitchens

And,

This is one of the two toilets

Anyway built about 1940 ish and it was a hybrid,

This is just one of the batteries (Varta apparently)

230 tons of battery, the Diesel engine charged the batteries and powered the sub on the surface but under the water it ran on electric motors,
