It was an awesome trip for sure!

 

Big thank you to B&O and Lee for organizing it! 🤒

 

I'd like to say a big thanks to everyone at Beoworld and Bang & Olufsen who made this a trip to remember. 🙂 As Lee said Danish hospitality is second to none. Great food too. It was also an excellent opportunity to catch up with Beoworlders I've met before and to get to know the ones I haven't seen before. Thank you all! 🤒

the elephants who also planned a tour this morning.

The elephants are in Skagen as recommended by the Beoworld contingent from Copenhagen - turns out this is 57N which makes it two degree further north than Peter in Newcastle :-)

So far Sue has had a lobster tail and I have had a glass of the local beer ... and we about to venture out for another glass or two.

Investigation of the wonders and painters' delights in the light of this place can wait until tomorrow :-)

Hope Skagen is as good as my recommendations!

If you're still there, don't miss the painters museum. 

Best wishes!

Ola

We really enjoyed the painters' house/museum ... and the house of their neighbours - a beautiful setting.

We also went out at 4:30am to the top tip of Denmark to watch the sun rise over the meeting of the two seas :-)

 

 

Both Sue & I want to thank B&O, Tue, Jetta, Lee, and Keith for all the organising.

And we also want to thank numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 for being such great companions on this marvellous adventure

As they say in Skagen ... Hip Hip Hip Hoorah Hoorah Hoorah

I'm number 16.

Got home today late in the evening and I can assure you, this years harvest was already very good !!!!

Miles and more

After leaving Varde on Saturday I enjoyed another sunny trip south. After 110 km I arrived in Tønder, where I found out that holy mass on Sunday only would be at 4 pm. Thus I decided to add only 20 km to Niebüll where I found a hotel close to a church.

On Pentecost Sunday after mass it was enough time for a trip by train to Sylt, a well crowded but nice island. Today I rode or relaxed on to Brunsbüttel at one end of the Nord- Ostseekanal, getting a bed close to the sluice between Elbe and canal. Tomorrow I shall recollect my forgotten Serenata at the barbers' shop and at falling temperatures I will be home maybe on Thursday.

Up to now it was a inspiring time especially in Struer thanks to you all, a nice training and a good recreation for me.

So we are back, finally 🙁

The trip was unforgettable for sure - the people & the factory...

It was really nice to have pictures to the names - like always people are so different from what you have them pictured 😳

So we will join the party to thank Lee, Jette and all the others involved in organizing and making this possible.

 Best wishes from numbers 9 and 24 (Mr. and Mrs. hemenex)

As promised some pictures of my trip to Struer.

• B&O branding in 1st class area of the train from Copenhagen tot Struer

 

• Welcome with goodiebag with small gift from Beoworld and B&O and the official program

 

• Smallest church of Denmark on the island Venø where B&O had taken us for a nice dinner, not in the church but in a restaurant 😁

 

• Sales # display for Beosound 8 and Beolit 12 at the main entrance of 'The Farm'

The trip was remarkable and the funniest thing happened to me when we were shown the A3 iPad dock. I told the B&O person (Heidi or Iza) that I have seen it before and that it was a great product. She then gave me a bit of a funny strange look. The next day Tue talked about the A3 iPad dock as well and told that they have just introduced it. Until today I can not recall where I have seen the product before ... so I must have dreamed (!!) that I had it in my hands and seen it live before coming to Struer 😮 😁

That's what (looking forward to) this BEO visit has done to me. And btw the iPad dock is great.

Best wishes to you both - and glad you are safely home - we have had a nice weekend in Copenhagen, and will be heading south tomorrow - we are thinking of tracing Peter's bicycle tire tracks :-)

I have updated my avatar to reflect the brand of a chain of hotels that we discovered (but did not stay at) in Copenhagen 😂

That may be a trip with a good deal of wind from the wrong side. This morning I ordered some north wind, but two guys in the same hotel wished a strong breeze from the west and they got it. As I wanted to look at some relatives near Bremen I had to deal with it for 147 km. Big surprise: no problems. Practicing the last fortnight helped...

Now only 70 miles to Buffalo, no, to my home...

As usual, i must have done something wrong as the link dows not work and my pics have vanished in thin air

 

So, tada.. there we go
