I get up at six AM and have a shower. Then I go to the cafetaria for breakfast.
I ask the waitress if I may fill my thermos with coffee and that is no problem.
Then I have to spray the chain, check the oil and cooling fluid levels and
load all my luggage at the bike again. Finaly, at seven, I'm on the road again.
On the road to Hirsthals in Danmark
It is an hour and a half driving to the ferry terminal in Hirsthals. When I
arrive I buy a ticket but it is to early to check in so from half past eight
to ten o'clock AM, I'm waiting at the terminal building.

Then, at ten, we can check in and I drive to the parking with the lines with
cars for the ferry to Kristiansand in Norway.
First the ferry to Bergen is loaded and leaves the port and then the Kristiansand
ferry, the Silvia Ana, arrives.

Boarding starts at twelve and at half past twelve, we leave port.
I had to tighten the bike myself but with a little help it was secured to
the deck. Now I'm on my way to Norway.
