| borgehauge05:02 UTC14 Jul 2007 | I am staying with my family and friends in Denmark for two weeks in beginning of August. There is a ferry to Puttgarden close to the place we are staying. Would it be a nice thing to do for a day to go to Puttgarden with the ferry? What can we do there if we want to stay there for a day together with kids (3-8 years)?
I am happy to have som tips if this would be a nice day for Norwegians!

Id say that you need a car to make it a worthwhile day trip. With a car you could either explore the island Fehmarn which is a popular holiday destination in August or go to Heiligenhafen (22 km from Puttgarden). Heiligenhafen is quite a nice small fishing town and offers enough to keep a day tripper happy. Including shopping. If you dont have a car at your disposal, I would ditch the whole idea.

| abalada00:53 UTC15 Jul 2007 | DB timetable From: Roedby Faerge To: Luebeck and select as means of transport "only local transport".
There is e.g. a connection Roedby dep. 08:15. With enough time to buy a Schleswig-Holstein Ticket (EUR 29,00) from one of the ticket machines in Puttgarden. Departure in Puttgarde is at 09:22 (thus past 9am - the SH Ticket is on weekdays only valid past 9am).
Lübeck - the queen of the Hanseatic League - is really worth a visit. You can also visit the Sand World in Travemünde - the harbour/beach of Lübeck.
