Ditt Hotell Hotell Fina Laxen Halmstad

Jasper was very kind and gave us a lovely sleep in til half 9, good boy! It was overcast but not raining. We headed to see the little mermaid which was only nearby, unfortunately it did start to rain again but we got to see the statue by the sea amongst all the other tourists and kayakers( what a great way to see Copenhagen, but a bit miserable when its wet). After a quick call to our Dad's to wish them father's day in Oz, we headed to the Oresund Bridge. <br>We ...

There was a beautiful sunset too.

... but he's doing alright...so no worries...I am thus far invicible to its dangers. Oh, and the first wipe out occurred today as I tripped over a fallen tree only to hit my head on the one above me and fall down....luckily I didn't break my femur. Love, Kaylea and Matt P.S.

This captain was a brother of Lord _________, and he led a rather secluded life, with his wife and two daughters. "I suppose," said I, "that he speaks Swedish well, after living here so long?"
