Join us as we continue our cycle tour through Denmark, catching ferries, and staying in shelters. We visit the tiny island of Drejo before returning to Svendborg where you can catch up with us again in Part 3.
Flag rules have been softened up, this year I think. You can put up any flag now. The up/down rule is simple, no Dannebrog up at night (dark), it is considered to be flagging for the devil. Old stuff as you can imagine. Fun fact: It is NOT illegal to burn the Dannebrog. You can burn it, shout at it all you want. But it is illegal to burn other countries flag. It is the worlds oldest national flag. There are plenty of older flags, but not as national flag. The area you were in, is known for many shoot down of British bombers, during WWII. Some were rescued, some were not. That why you can find small memorials and gravestones, here and there. It is not uncommon to see British people visit their ancestors in this part of DK.
The big agriculture is mostly in Jutland, more space over there. Bacon yes. Pigs are indoor, so you really don't notice them. Some pig farms are over, 200000 per year, so they are big. It takes a lot of pigs to keep the Brits happy 🙂 We do also have outdoor pigs.
