The stuff gives us stacks of freedom and comfort, running the fridge, air heater and water heater, and we were running out of the stuff in a country which doesn&#8217;t have LPG refilling points, or at least not many of &#8217;em. Yep, we might have spent 3 of the past 5 years on the road, but we still muck stuff up folks. In fact, the longer we do this the more complacent I&#8217;m becoming. Luckily the info on mylpg.eu about there being a refill point just north of Odense turned out to be accurate. The garage had an ancient LPG pump, although we needed the faded Autogas lettering to confirm this, as the price of the gas was roughly double what it costs everywhere else in Europe. After a poke around the place, an attendant appeared, a friendly old chap who filled us up and sorted us out to pay in euros when our non-Danish credit card wouldn&#8217;t work. He even gave us a \u20ac5 discount, when we didn&#8217;t have enough euros for the bill, smiling at us and pushing our 50, 20 and 10\u00a0cent coins back across the counter.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_24666\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24666\" class=\"size-large wp-image-24666\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC03171-1024x606-1024x606.jpg\" alt=\"Huge swing bridge on the way into Odense.

Motivation is lacking in Team Zagan folks, we&#8217;re struggling to force ourselves to go look at another church, castle, museum, city, park, whatever. With a virtual face slap we aimed for the city centre, finding some road parking alongside a park where we could stay for an hour, and legged it around\u00a0the city. Odense is a reasonable-sized place, with some 200,000 of Denmark&#8217;s 5 million-odd folks living there. Its main claim to fame is Hans Christian Andersen, who was born and grew up there.\u00a0 Walking past an enormous building site where the city centre should be, we followed umpteen signs to\u00a0his old house sat among a pleasant area, looked at it, and headed back to the van.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_24674\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24674\" class=\"wp-image-24674 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_20161017_130351174-1024x576-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Hans Christian Andersen's House in Odense\" width=\"620\" height=\"349\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_20161017_130351174-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_20161017_130351174-1024x576-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_20161017_130351174-1024x576-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-24674\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hans Christian Andersen&#8217;s House in Odense<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_24675\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24675\" class=\"wp-image-24675 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_20161017_130426871_HDR-1024x576-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Odense Manhole Cover\" width=\"620\" height=\"349\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_20161017_130426871_HDR-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_20161017_130426871_HDR-1024x576-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_20161017_130426871_HDR-1024x576-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-24675\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Odense Manhole Cover<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_24670\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24670\" class=\"wp-image-24670 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC03188-1024x627-1024x627.jpg\" alt=\"Hans Christian Andersen - author of various travelogues as well as his famous fairy tales\" width=\"620\" height=\"380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC03188-1024x627.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC03188-1024x627-300x184.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC03188-1024x627-768x470.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-24670\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hans Christian Andersen &#8211; author of various travelogues as well as his famous fairy tales<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_24668\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24668\" class=\"wp-image-24668 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC03177-1024x593-1024x593.jpg\" alt=\"Apparently the girls love graffiti writers!\" width=\"620\" height=\"359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC03177-1024x593.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC03177-1024x593-300x174.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC03177-1024x593-768x445.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-24668\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Apparently the girls love graffiti writers!<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_24672\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24672\" class=\"wp-image-24672 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC03190-1024x512-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"30 Billion DKK are being spent on redeveloping the city centre.

Heading out into the open countryside, ploughed-brown fields flowing to the horizon, and we again failed to spot a single one of Denmark&#8217;s 25 million pigs. They&#8217;re all raised inside it seems, like factory chickens.

A slaughter-house was incorporated into the building, ostensibly to reduce transport stress for the animals.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_24679\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24679\" class=\"size-large wp-image-24679\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_20161018_091841218-1024x576-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"There are five times more pigs then people in Denmark, but none are roaming the fields\" width=\"620\" height=\"349\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_20161018_091841218-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_20161018_091841218-1024x576-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_20161018_091841218-1024x576-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-24679\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">There are five times more pigs then people in Denmark, but none are roaming the fields<\/p><\/div>\n<p>In Faaborg we came across a plethora of no-motorhome signs around the port, having us wonder whether we were no longer welcome, but around a corner we spotted the aire with space for 6 vans. Rolling in, paying up, plugging in, WiFi-checking all\u00a0took place before I cracked open the fridge and cracked open the first of many beers.

I&#8217;m not proud, but I fancied a few beers far more than I fancied walking around a cold, out-of-season\u00a0Danish seaside town. Several Lidl cans later (all stored in a bag now ready for reclaim of the pant &#8211; the deposit), and a few episodes of\u00a0The Sopranos, and we hit the sack.<\/p>\n<p>Ju was, of course, far more restrained than me, leaping up and going for a run around Faaborg this morning as I recovered with a bacon sandwich. We&#8217;ve talked through where we&#8217;re at with travelling again this morning, as we do much of the time, pondering what&#8217;s next for us in the coming months and years. We&#8217;re heading to Morocco this winter, but after that all is up for grabs. Should we find somewhere to stay abroad for a few months? Should we head home and do some work, perhaps kicking off another house refurb? One thing&#8217;s for sure: we can&#8217;t just keep rolling around Europe endlessly.
