West coast adventure

Well, i'm back on adventure. This time i'm traveling along the danish west coast, from "Blåvand" to "Skagen" in a small tent. I have around a week to get to Skagen, which is pretty easy. BUT to make it harder, i said to myself: "Bunkers... It would be pretty amazing to take some nighttime pictures of bunkers." 
So i'm on a bunker hunt... Fairly easy to find, but very hard to photograph in the dark.

Yesterday was my first try. I didn't get any night photos (took to long to setup camp) so i took some pictures during daytime.

 

The "Tirpitz bunker"

One of the biggest bunker positions along the danish west coast. Never finished because the war ended. But an estimate says that the canon the germans would have mounted on it, would have been able to shoot 55 kilometers (way more than any potato guns you my fellow readers would have lying around at home).

I got into talking with this very nice receptionist (it's a museum now) who was really into world war 2 and bunkers. And he told me a LOT of stories, and gave me a schematic he'd made himself, in which he explains how the allied troops would have been able to conquer the harbour in Esbjerg (pretty close to, Tirpitz was meant to defend Esbjerg from an allied landing in Denmark)

The "left over german cavalry" bunkers

The germans were not that bright... They thought they could disguise their bunkers as cavalry (similar to what the british did with some cardboard before invading France)... But it failed... Mostly because it was stupid... Which of-course anyone who believes in this story apparently also are... It is of-course a danish art project... Funny one, i'll give them that. And prettier than "Elia" (worlds ugliest alien coverup... Google "Elia Herning" and see why ;) )

Camping

When camping in Denmark, you're sure to meet a lot of dangerous animals like: "The terrifying sheep", or the "killer cow", or even the most feared and fabled "killer rainworm"... But the most dangerous thing, is... "Bjørn" the dog, with his ball and his cunning, he makes you throw the ball until you die... I almost fell for it... Those eyes are deceiving man! 

"Look at me i'm so cute...
But i am gonna eat you when you die of exhaustion"

Toursits 

Get the H@"#% out of my shot... 

No... Noo you can see i've just placed a tripod and a camera there... YOU'RE IN MY SHOT! 

Okay... Fine, i'll take the picture, and if they complain i'm gonna kill them...

It's a serious problem with all those tourists... 

All over the place... Hopefully they're gone by tonight... I see bunkers! 

That should bee all for today... I'm enjoying the fresh air, the sun, the beach, and the nature! :)

See you all tomorrow! :)
