Øresund

Some pictures form the beautiful and sometimes crazy Baltic sea, the coast, the beach and the cliffs next to it. It was somehow so nice to be surrounded by water all the time, such a difference from the city.

Hammershus

I think that you have not really been to Bornholm if you have not visited Hammershus. At least it is one of the things, I always have heard about as one of the main attractions there.

I am not sure I exactly understood who had been living there and what was the use, but maybe it was mostly because I was focusing on the beautiful nature surrounding the place (It is indeed a great vantage point) and then the cute little hedgehog we meet on our way through the old ruin.   

Gudhjem and Svakene

One thing I can't get over is how cute it is everywhere at Bornholm. With all the timber frame houses, the fig trees, the small streets and yellow all over.

We visited Gudhjem and Svaneke on the same day. Both towns are relatively small and near to each other so it was easily done.

In Gudhjem we met a very friendly cat on our way down to the harbor, such a beautiful and fluffy creature. And in Svaneke we looked at cute little stores around the square and had lunch at Svaneke Bryghus. Of cause with their own beer and beer mustard. Yum.

Walk to Tejn

If we went in the opposite direction of Allinge, we were bound to hit Tejn in a couple of kilometers. We decided to walk there one morning, since there is a nice path all the way along the coast. It was a very windy day, and the ocean had some crazy waves, but luckily the sun was shining and kept us warm despite the wind.

When we arrived at Tejn, it was time for a drink and luckily (with a bit of difficulty) we managed to find the local brewery at the harbor. They have exiting things going on, with brewing beer and then aging it on old vine and liqueur barrels. Since it has to age for 6 month to 3 years, we had to settle for what they had on tap. Eleven is definitely not too early for a beer fresh from the draft. After all, we were on holidays.
