So after spending the night in the apartment with atleast two other refugees we continued our journey to Brussels. The morning goes great untill we enter Belgium and everything goes wrong. All signs dissapear and the bicycle roads are either crap or nonexistant. Besides that we make it to Antwerpen which is a dull industrial city. Finding our way out was nearly impossible since there where no signs. After spending an hour finding our way out we finally find Mortsel our next stop when the missleading gay man appears who convinces us to take the A12 down to Brussels which then makes our 1 to 2 hour trip into a 4 hour trip.

Finally the winds where on our side so we had an awesome ride down to breda, untill the rain started and we had to take shelter in a refugecamp run by the local pizzaman in Breda.

The second day we took another museum, this ti,e the Van Gogh. After that we had a nice boatride down the canals (non romantic kind). We finished the day by doing laundry, yeah!

Today we just went around exploring the city on our bikes, we allso went to the Rijksmuseum to explore some of Rembrandts works. We ended the day with transformers in imax, shitty movie with cool effects. Then in the evening we went around the innercity, naturally we had to take a quick detour threw the red light district to view the local cuisine.

Today we finally arrived in Amsterdam after the most tiresome day so far. We had only 6-7 miles to travel but we had the winds against us most of the time reducing our speed to aprox 1/3 of normal speed and making it so much harder. We allso didn't bring enough food so we where hungry as hell and there was nowhere to eat our buy anything as there where only farmland around us for the entire trip towards Amsterdam. But we powered threw it and FINALLY arrived in Amsterdam exhausted and ended up drinking beer at the camp ground with chips watching the sun go down so it was basically awesome. We are now looking forward to 2 or 3 days of rest in Amsterdam. More updates and pictures to come before we leave Amsterdam. Right now we have travelled more or less 1 000 km on the bikes in 8 days, Italy here we come.

*Sidenote: Atleast a week of vacation in Italy when we are done, everyone is welcome!

We took a long ride down to Kampen which was basically a small old city for rich people with there HUGE yachts, a very nice city thou. We decided to stay outside of the city in a camping thou after realising that there was 1 hotell to stay at called van dick (or dijk) with a totall douchebag as a receptionist. But it was a great win as we ended up spending the evening in the "local pub" at the grounds with the locals talking warstories and beeing offered strange liquor which we where tricked into drinking.

So after once again camping ilegally in the woods we set off towards Amsterdam. After a long and tiresome day we finally arrived in the quaint town of Meppen where we found a nice camping very central so we decided to stay the night there. In the evening we jumped around in the different pubs. We found a pub where we had matjesfile (stor sillfile) with fried potatoes, it was awesome!

We woke up early behind the bushes in a field where we had camped ilegally during the night. Refreshed we went onwards to Bremen. We spent the day in Bremen looking at all the tourist spots and eating some lunch at the local townsquare. We planned to see a awesome imax 3D movie aswell but sadly everything was in german :(. Instead we kept going onwards towards our next stop Amsterdam.

Today we just traveled towards Bremen to camp nearby so we could get up early and see Bremen during the day. Still no flats btw.

Today we went to Hamburg where we stayed over the night. We arrived in the evening and started by eating our first Schnitzel with mushroomsauce, it was AWESOME! Besides that Hamburg was mostly very quite during the evening, barely anyone outside besides in the ghetto (*Que Cartman singing "In the ghetto"). We went past the local sexclub street where we were offered free entrance and pussy parades. No pictures right now for the following days.

We chilled in Lübeck soaking in the city, we visited a museum which was part of some world heritage thing. After that we stumbled upon a parade in which local businesses played music and threw candy at people. It was nice.

So we arrive in Puttgard around 12'O clock and decide to make a go for Lübeck, which was more then 10 miles. After an hour riding we encounter our first obstacle which is the Fehmarnsund bridge, aka bridge of death. With winds strong enough to lift and throw a full grown man, thankfully this barely half a man had his fully packed bike to hold him down. We couldn't actually ride across we had to get of our bikes and walk across. After that we kept on peddling threw the rain and winds untill 8'O clock when we finally arrived in Lübeck cold and wet. After 3-4 hostels we finally find one willing to take us in.

We start of our morning in Denmark (it's raining when we wake up) and hurry down to rödhavn where we are able to catch the ferrie and we had 50 danish cents left after paying the trip (awesome!).

After a long and windy day we finally found ourself a place to sleep in a forest behind a reststop. So far it's been cold and windy, little did we know about the surprise awaiting us the following morning.

Lunch time

We start off by leaving Copenhagen and heading for Roskilde  where we stay the night in our tent falling asleep to the sound of Iron Maiden live.

Camp spot first night, in the bushes next to the Roskildefestival.

We start of with the hard trip with the train down to Copenhagen. The keybord is in German and therefor the english.
