Amsterdam to Copenhagen
April 17th, 2010
Bad omen from the sat nav
The Tartan Eagles have arrived in Copenhagen! This morning we woke up in Amsterdam and a little over 10 hours later we made it to the Danish capital.
There were no mishaps to speak of today and Maxi was on top form, getting up to over 90 miles an hour on the crazy German highways.
Today was a day of firsts:
Laura drove on the right side of the road for the first time
We spotted our first fellow challengers – Some impressive designs and stickering but nothing quite as spectacular as our Maxi.
We reached our first Scandinavian country!
It felt as though we were filling up constantly since we are now a bit wary of filling our tank more than half way as a result of pre-ferry escapades. Petrol is expensive in this part of the world too, but not when compared to the bridge tolls.
We’re off to sleep in our ghetto hostel without locks on the doors…tomorrow we’re going to say hej to a little Mermaid before taking off for Oslo!

Fun sign in Denmark
