Day 18 July 29th cruising the Baltic towards Oslo Norway.

Day 18 July 29th cruising the Baltic towards Oslo Norway.
I awoke at 5:30am, the sun had just risen and the day was overcast with a low temperature of 15°. We will be having an easy day today; I will spend time editing photos, we will take advantage of the marvellous washing machine only 10meters down the corridor. After breakfast I sat on the balcony and watched as we sailed close to several hundred windmills in the sea generating power for Denmark which was just visible on the horizon. At 1:45pm we sailed under the Østbroen Bridge. We just fitted under with what looked like 2 metres to spare. The bridge has the third longest main span in the world; 1.6km. It links the two main parts of Denmark.
At 8:00pm we made our way to the Princess Theatre as we have for the last 7 evenings. Tonight’s program was song and dance with tunes from our young days; songs like Tennessee waltz, Que Sara Sara, Walking My Baby Back Home etc. The theatre was packed with an appreciative audience; mostly oldies like us.
