Today we were looking forward to experiencing Denmark’s public transportation system from our local station in Holbæk directly into the city centre of Copenhagen.
Friday night has to go down as one of the most blustery nights that we have endured so far in the caravan here in Ballum. Added to that was the torrential rain which sounded like someone spraying the top and sides of the van with a hosepipe! We were suffering the effects of one of the current storms sweeping off the North Sea from the Atlantic.
Luckily by mid afternoon there was a break in the weather and to stop us going stir crazy we ventured out in the car to explore the local area.
Today we took the short drive over to Colditz again to visit the Schloss and take the 13:00 guided tour. Priced at €9 the tour lasts an hour and gives you the basics of the history of the castle and its’ use as prisoner of war camp Oflag IV-C during World War 2.
There is a two hour extended tour available too. If I were to go again I would plump for this.
