An early start today as we had a long drive ahead nearly to the top of Denmark.
After another day on the motorways we arrived at the "aire" which turned out to be a noisy motorway rest point with nothing more than a toilet emptying point!! Disappointed and not really in the mood for more driving, we reluctantly decided to carry on to Tars which was supposed to be a free aire behind a MH dealers.
Following the satnav directions, we left the motorway and turned left. We found this slightly strange because Tars was signposted to the right! Nevertheless we continued until we came to a narrow track which ended in someone's courtyard... There was no opportunity to turn round so we had to reverse 100m back to the road.
Having successfully extricated ourselves from the depths of rural Denmark we entered the road name instead of the GPS location into the satnav and headed back to the motorway roundabout to go the other way towards Tars.
Finally on arriving at the aire we discovered that they now charge €7/night but as we were shattered and it included free electricity we decided to stay. We wandered round the town, watched a couple of episodes of Spooks and went to bed. It was quite late but the sun was still shining!
We've driven 1066 miles from Devon and are very close to Fredrickshavn where we'll take the ferry to Sweden tomorrow night - the proper travelling starts here :-)
