The Thunder Puffin on the cobblestone streets of Tønder
Tønder is in the middle of an area that was known as the Duchy of Schleswig, which was a fiefdom of Denmark until 1918
Over 75 percent of the residents of Tønder, which was located in the very southern end of the Northern region, voted to join the German state
So, despite the wishes of the vast majority of Tønder’s residents in 1918’s plebiscite, the city has been part of Denmark for over a century now
Further north, AJ walks by the Ballum Sluce gatehouse hoping to spot some of the rare birds that migrate through the area

After leaving the Wadden Sea, we stumbled onto a classic car show in the Danish city of Hobro
