Friday 7th August 2026

We travelled south. We took on water and emptied waste tanks. We stopped at the town of Ljungby and took on LPG at this dodgy gas depot. A ridiculous situation ocurred as after we had filled our LPG tanks and went to pay we found that our card provider required a PIN but that the depot's card reader was unable to accept PINs, it could only accept contactless payments!!! We had no Swedish currency! Had I been in the UK I think I would have refused payment and driven off. However as I was in Sweden, and not sure about the legal position, I set off on foot to look for a cash machine. The bloke at the depot was unable to describe to me where I might find one so I had to ask around at local businesses as to where a cash machine might be! Eventually I found one, one of the nasty ones that charges you an exorbitant fee for taking out money. I returned to the gas depot and paid up, while telling the bloke in charge what a poxy shit ridden outfit he was running!

We continued travelling south, stopping along the way to buy groceries. We arrived at the port in Helsingborg and lined up to get on the ferry to Helsingor in Denmark,

The ferry crossing from here to Denmark takes about 20 minutes.

Here we are on the ferry.

There was a bit of a traffic jam getting off the ferry.

We stopped for the day at a rough parking area just opposite The Danish Museum of Science and Technology at Helsingor.

This is a nice quiet place.

One of the museum's large exhibits is just next to our parking place.

It looks quite an interesting place.

We had bread and cheese and tomatoes for our tea followed by raspberries and cream.

Today we travelled 120 miles (193 kilometres), plus the distance on the ferry from Helsingborg to Helsingor. We are at: N56.02205 E12.56337
