Beautiful day and not a cloud in the sky, an easy cycle from Gluckstadt good clear minor roads through farmland and small hamlets each with beautiful gardens in front of every house and people weeding in front of their homes. Such pride in the neighbourhood and all seem very relaxed with life. Crossed the Keil canal on the shuttle ferry busy carrying tractors et al, free too as only major traffic can use the road bridge. Stopped in Meldorf for a MilchKaffe, it has a lovely church and spent the afternoon in Heide my overnight stop, a modern neat town, hotel is ok but right by the busier than expected station. Popped into the very modern ticket office in the off chance they might be able to help me book me and bike back from Copenhagen to Hamburg. After a bit of note writing and sign language with the man on the desk who spoke a little English, I have my Sunday train back booked so I now must finish this to get back. If there is a similar place in Husum tomorrow I will try to book the Hamburg Rotterdam leg for the Monday. Til tomorrow Pic of Meldorf church.
