May 21st Fur- on the hook- part of the Limfjorden

From Aalborg we motored to Fur, about 8 hours away. Fur is a small island with some very interesting geologic features; there are many fossils in the rock although we did not have an opportunity to investigate them. 

By the time we arrived it was blowing quiet hard (gusting to 25 knots) so we decided not to repeat the Aalborg performance and instead anchored in the bay next to the harbor. The next morning Charles took the dinghy in to find a post box for Sue’s mail. Because it was Sunday everything was closed.   Before we left Fur the dinghy was put on the foredeck for our passage to Norway.
