Leaving Helsingor we decided to visit the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art on our way back to the van. If we cycled really fast we could just about make it before last entrance. On a very fast stretch  of track I heard a loud crash behind me and turned round to see Graeme spread over the cycle track. He had hit a curb and been thrown off his bike, at full speed, landing on his knee, elbow, shoulder and head, in that order. We managed to limp back to the campsite by which time Graeme was in a lot of pain. The campsite owners Eva & Bengt were wonderfully helpful, Eva phoned the hospital and arranged for me to take Graeme to casualty that evening. Our home had now become an ambulance and  I admit arriving a camper van into a hospital carpark was not without its comical side. As with all accident and emergency departments, there was a long trail of people coming and going with various ailments mainly breakages of some sort or another. Graeme was no exception. The x-ray showed he had fractured his collarbone in the fall. His grazes and wounds were cleaned, he was given a tetanus injection was fitted with an arm sling, and told to not use his right arm for the next three weeks. I don’t know what caused him the most pain, his shoulder or the fact that now I would have to do all the driving!!
