Trains were nice and good in Denmark..well organised..
and punctual as well..we left for Fyn island..
this as well involved a ferry crossing Korsor towards Nyborg..
nowadays they built a bridge..just like they did for the Oresund..
between Copenhagen to Malmo(Sweden)we took the hydrofoil..
now..Odense..capital of Fyn..was reached...
we went first to the Youth hostel..to book for the night..
a very nice place..about 2kms.by bus..we got our places..
in that youth hostel..you got no key from the rooms..
but a credit card like thing..very safe..but..I'll tell you later...
funny anectdote happened for a Norvegian in my room..uhuh..
We took a bus back to the town..first thing we did..
a visit to the house of Hans Christian Andersen..a very good museum..
it's full of memorabilia of this fairy tale writer..like sketches,drawings etc..
as usual lots of tourists in a place like that..but it was interesting..
in the afternoon we took a bus to the Fynske Landsby=an open air museum
with old farmhouses,utensils,pottery demonstration,an old mill,folklore..
very friendly people who told us about old customs of this place..

P.S.click English on right corner+places on that map....
in the evening..food at the Youth hostel..French fries,salad,chicken legs..
really well made and served..for a reasonable price..so after that..
a good shower to rinse away the dust of the day..now..this card system..
to enter the rooms..very safe indeed..we all went to bed at 23.00h..
there were about 4 people in my room..a Norvegian..
decided to go for a pee in the middle of the night..
you guess well..he went in his underwear..and forgot his door card..
he got locked out..and it took a while indeed..
before we heard him banging at the door..
he simply could NOT get in..a very safe system..but??
next morning a good breakfast...and back by train to Copenhagen..
we got our bed/breakfast place arranged before we left for Odense..
the owner kept our place..next day..we were gonna go by hydrofoil
to Malmo(Sweden)a day return..and a train ride to Lund..nice town..
