Cycling in Denmark - Day 1
I am writing from our hotel room in Nyborg Denmark on the island of Fyn.
We already started our cycling trip.
We spent the first few days exploring Copenhagen, walking the many neighborhoods, looking at the art and getting to know the city.
On our last day in the city we paid a visit to the "Louisiana" modern art museum which featured an exhibition by Cezanne and Giacometti.
We strolled through the grounds of the fifty year old museum and had a wonderful day enjoying the collection.
Yesterday we took a train from Copenhagen to Svenborg where our cycling trip began.
After breakfast we got our bikes which are pretty basic but handle surprisingly well.
We cycled through a forest, along coastal villages and scenic fields of wheat, barley and oats.
We enjoyed the stately homes along the countryside, many with well kept glorious thatched roofs.
The weather was cloudy but dry and we felt comfortable wearing long sleeve biking shirts and long biking pants.
There are designated bike paths and secondary roads which are mostly flat with some hills.
The cycling is easier than we thought.
We cycled about 49 Km today.
Tonight we are staying in a seaside hotel in Nyborg.
We had a lovely dinner of a salad buffet which was filling but very light.
