Day 1: Thuis – Wildeshausen (D)<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

And we have left Our honeymoon to Iceland, this morning Bakkie calmly loaded. Madam des huize is still at the physiotherapist, and then we leave at 10 o’clock. First we have to fill up with diesel, otherwise we won’t get far. So to the gas station, refuel as full as possible. Oh yes, every liter counts, so aim well and yes. diesel syringe on edge of filler cap,
\nresult the gentleman who fills our tank is full of diesel. The sad thing is that I am that person. Everything is full of diesel, sweeping me a little clean, no that’s not enough I stink like a diesel tank itself. So clean outfit. For the rest, we have not had any notifications today. Minor delays here and there, but nothing to write about. Antwerp itself went smoothly. After the necessary stops we arrive in Wildeshausen Germany. Good start to another great adventure. Off to tomorrow.<\/p>\n

\n

Day 2: Wildeshausen – Fredericia (DK)<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

As little traffic jam we had yesterday, the more today.
\nBad day, one traffic jam after another.
\n400 km and on the road all day !!??}}@@:(:( not nice
\nStand at the marina of Fredericia, beautiful pitch on the water.
\nBetter traffic tomorrow I hope<\/p>\n

\"bridge\"<\/p>\n

\n

Day 3: Fredericia – Hirthals (DK)<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

After a quiet night at the marina we leave for Hirtshals.
\nUnlike yesterday, today it is wonderfully quiet, no traffic jams and little traffic.
\nGreat to be able to drive back on northern roads.
\nWe arrive in Tornby Beach around noon.
\nOf course on the beach, heading south, a turn to drive back to the parking.
\nAnd yes, stuck in the sand.
\nWith too high a gear we went into the bend, loose sand and BONK we are stuck.
\nGet out, and yes, I already knew that there was no beginning.
\nSo as we learned 3 years ago, lowering tires to 2.5 Bar.
\nDigging out wheels 4×4 in lower gear and we are WHOEPS away.
\nWe are gone, it took a good hour of course.
\nOnce back on the hard sand, tires push back to 6.8Bar and then to the parking.
\nHere we eat that evening and then we move to Hirtshals, apparently there is a ban on “wild camping” in Tornby Beach.
\nAt least there was a sign saying it was not allowed.
\nAnd then I don’t do it either.
\nAround 8 p.m. we arrive at a payment car park in Hirtshals
\nTomorrow the boat to T\u00f3rshavn on the Faroe Islands.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

Day 4+5: Hirthals – Faer\u00f6er<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Saturday morning, sleeping late, having breakfast, taking a walk.
\nAnd then towards the Smyrilline Terminal.
\nWay too early, but that’s how I am.
\nOnce on board inspect room and explore the boat.
\nEverything TOP
\nRough weather, certainly 5Bft.
\nM \/ S NORR\u00d6NA has had this before, quite stable ship.
\nAt 6 pm Faroe Islands time the dinner buffet, FANTASTIC simply no other words for it.
\nFor the rest, we spend our time on board relaxing, updating photos and reports.
\nAnd regularly get a breath of fresh air, I like it and my wife too.
\nSo far so good.
\nWe will soon arrive on the Faroe Islands, more about that tomorrow.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

Day 6: Torshavn – Gjolv (FO)<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

And the first day in Faroe Islands is over.
\nBeautiful very beautiful.
\nEverything fresh green, all meadows in bloom.
\nBeautiful very beautiful.
\nToday I did the first walk of the holiday, a real walk.
\nHeld in Saksum, NW of the island of STREYMOY.
\nWalk in a start 3.5 km inland and go to the Atlantic Ocean.
\nDelicious, peaceful and beautiful, very beautiful.
\nThen we drove further along a few “SCENIC ROUTES” view routes from sea level to 350 meters and then ended up again at 0 meters.
\nAgain BEAUTIFUL, VERY BEAUTIFUL;
\nI can write quietly that we both like the Faroe Islands very well.
\nBut a bit small to hang around for 4 weeks, that is not for us.
\nBut not least, we will certainly enjoy the 2 remaining days here, and certainly if the weather stays as nice as today.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

Day 7: Gjolv – Aeduvik (FO)<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Lazy morning, sleep late ?? all madam of the house anyway.
\nI wake up at 7 a.m. oh well
\nAfter breakfast, refueled water and we are gone.
\nGo for a walk in Elduvik, beautiful cliff walk.
\nThen we drove to Aeduvik, where we will sleep for the night.
\nOn to tomorrow, the journey to Iceland will continue.<\/p>\n
