London Olympics: Bacon sandwiches and cold beers

It the event on the tall ship Maja there was of course a celebration of Denmark's food and drink, and appropriately they chose two favourites of sailors.

How many sailing trips of mine have started with a juicy bacon sandwich prepared in a cafe somewhere on the shores of the Solent? And how many have ended with a beer in some bar, from St. Lucia to Reykjavik?

So yes, there was bacon, prepared by a chef with beetroot, and also a bottle of ice cold beer, brewed and bottled especially for the Maja (see above).

Now that cold one did go down very well on a day when London glowed under a scorching summer sun.
