Welcome to Germany, where everybody drives their BMW, Mercedes or Volkswagen at 180 km an hour everywhere

As you may have guessed, Germany is totally different to Holland.

Everybody drives really fast here, Australian cops would love it!

We only stayed for one night in a place I think was called westerstede, about 25 km out of Oldenburg as we are simply on our way through to Denmark which we hope to arrive in today, although by the time this posts, we would have already gotten there and used the wifi to upload this blog. As I write, Elky is struggling to push our camper past 110 on a road where most people cruise at 160, it’s a great feeling. We just passed a sign cheerily saying ‘finger vom handy’ … I’m not sure what that means.

Camping was only €11 which was great until construction workers started digging up ground next to us at some silly hour, then when I showed my face they asked us to move…I think…his English wasn’t much better than my German.

Anyway, this is making me feel car sick…

We will visit Germany properly on our way out of Scandinavia.

Thanks for calling.
