Cycling into Denmark 🚴‍♂️ 🇩🇰

I visit the old town of Lubeck and then catch the ferry to Denmark. Whilst waiting for the ferry I meet an Austrian chap named Johannus. We.cycle together to shelter by a lake where we set up camp for the night.

Ah that shelter is epic. I remember your post on that. Never seen anything like that before! Clever ol danes!

That's so funny. What are the odds?

[@klausolekristiansen2960]

In Germany they used the geographical mile, which is defined as one fifteenth of a degree of latitude. This is four nautical miles exactly. The Danish mile was close to that, but not precisely the same.

[@WestGoesEast]

Ah, that explains it. Thank you

[@ane-louisestampe7939]

Danish miles = about 7 km. Swedish miles = about 10 km

Hills?

@@WestGoesEast miles. You were wondering about the numbers on the mile stone. Not imperial miles, not US miles, not Swedish miles, but Danish miles.
