Heading to Denmark next month, any sights to see and nice stopovers along the way, on and off the beaten track? Any where to avoid? Our start/finishing point is Amsterdam and we are hoping to get to Grenen and Copenhagen, (will definitely go over the bridge to Malmo), so if you know of anything interesting, odd or just plain quirky to visit along the way let us know.
 
Ribe Denmadk and Sweden

Do have a look at the second oldest town in Denmark.
There is an Aire very close to the centre. ( big no camping signes) but fine to stay.
Strangely the last 200M has a 3 ton limit but the lorry car park is opposite the Aire!
Denmark can be cold wet and windy in April, Sweden is beautiful in May with all the spring time flush of new growth.
You may find garages in Sweden selling CNG , compressed natural gas. IT IS NOT THE SAME AS LPG. LPG is available at some places.
 
Grenen

Lovely walk along the sandbar to where 2 seas meet. You need to go through Skagen to get there, the towns cleaner than my house.:)
 
As your starting/finishing at Amsterdam then how about a visit to the largest flower market in the world.
Aalsmeer Flower Auction - Wikipedia
p.s. you won't get very close to the flowers, and you won't be able to bid, but we found it very interesting, esp the difference between now and the first time we visited 40 years ago.

Do not forget to look for the HILL, it is where the Dutch skiers go to practice.
 
Bridges with Brobizz

Got my electronic sender.
Currently set to pay tolls in local currencies with a Caxton currency card.

If I change it to a UK credit card will I be charged a conversion fee every time a toll is incurred??

A day spent in Aros Kunstmuseum was we'll worth the admission price.
