The following morning we left our hotel at Arvika, and motored down to Mellerud, where we called in at a couple of antique shops we know quite well, and did a fair amount of business. We eventually had lunch with Sten (one of the two dealers) at a little restaurant in the town centre which he frequents. He warned us of major road works on the road to Gothenberg, and planned a better route for us down through Uddevala. We drove a long way south and eventually arrived at Tvaaker and the farmhouse bed and breakfast photographed above.
The following morning we drove down to Helsingborg, and took the ferry across to Helsingor in Denmark.
We drove across Zealand, and over the toll bridge onto Funen (the middle island of Denmark) where we spent the night at the B. and B. above.
On Friday we drove across Funen and onto Jutland. Then across Jutland to Esbjerg where we caught the evening ferry. The photo below I took from our cabin window with Denmark fast receding in the background.
The below two photos show Ann and I relaxing in our cabin.
We arrived at Harwich at twelve noon on Saturday (our time), and, pausing only for a bite of lunch at Mistley, arrived home at two o'clock, and were greeted by a slightly unkempt, but very colourful, garden.
A glorious holiday, but it felt good to be home (as always).

Looking at your photos, I think we will have to add Scandanavia to our list of places to go. By the way, we had an excellent morning with you - it was great to see you both again.
More lovely photos. It looks as though you had better weather on your holidays than we have been 'enjoying' here.
Thank you Sir Bruin and Liz; and yes Liz, checking with our fellow townsfolk, we did have a lot better weather in Denmark, Sweden and Norway, than we'd have had here.
