I do the same tour I tried last year: Charlotte, Button and I cycle the NaturlandetRundt in Denmark. You can read all about my trip so far here: day0, day1, day2, day3, day4, day5, day6, day7

Today we went down the south coast of Lolland until its end, and even though I did the trip in reverse last year, I can hardly remember it, different than the trip 2 years ago. Well, I guess I really wasn’t doing well last year.

I slept ok in my tent in shelter. But I got woken up by some really loud birds very early.

When I finally left it was still 10:30 am, so waking up early does not make me faster. 😉

And the beginning of the day was fine, beside the wind still blowing from the wrong direction. I even found a nice rest spot when I was looking for one:

8.8km in 46:48, which means an average speed of 11.2km/h, 215 kcal with an average heart rate of 117bpm.

Now its got warm, and windy, and some bad roads, and when I thought I would just sit on my chair beside the forest in the shade and take a break, there were some shooting. I guess a hunter, but I was not brave enough to stop there. So I went on and on, helped another bicycle touring couple with directions, and finally found this bench under a touchy birch tree.

24.2km in 2:11 h, average speed of 11km/h. In those last 1:30 h I burned 406 kcal with an average heart rate of 118bpm.

Next we cycled through Nysted, where I was at the campground last year. I took a picture from each side, it is a cute town:

Then I followed the coast line on some really bad trails until Holten Strand, where I am camping tonight. Which seems also a spot for many Danes to come for swimming and sunbathing.

Often on my tour here I see those funny birds, that always try to run first, before they start flying. Can anybody tell me what they are called? I managed to take some kind of picture of a male one today:
