Big day...Kalmar Castle, around Oland

... visited, or maybe we were just tired. After schlepping our bags up to the room (a nice large space with windows overlooking the town square, but also with a rather unfortunate cot with a large fault-line through the middle!) we went next door for dinner. The Sweek food (Swedish Greek) wasn't bad but potatoes were a bit greasy; they redeemed themselves by providing Kaye with a diet Pepsi (Pepsi Max!)

Strandpromenad i Vitemöla

Utflyktsdag på egen hand, inledde med Simrishamns bibliotek och betalning av sommarens eftersända räkningar. Även en vända på stan, ytterligare bokfynd från mannen med hatten samt lunch på Börjes skafferi. Vidare till Vitemöla och strandpromenad och Sayers läsning i sanden. Inhandlande av rapsolja och honung i Havängsbodarna. Cyklade iväg till middag med vänner till familjen, 12 till bordet. Dagens drink: Sherry

DUX factory

... empty building and warehouse taking measurements and making notes. I had the camera with me to take pictures of the machines for visual recall later and help Staffan measuring around the machines. It was really interesting to see how beds were made and how it goes from little wires to springs, into full fledged mattresses. It was eery walking around when you knew it must be a madhouse when all the machines are chugging along and it is filled with life.

Last day in Sweden

Our last day in Sweden we packed our stuff, and drove with Inka towards Karslkrona, where the ferry was going to take us to the Polish port town of Gdynia. On the way to Karlskrona we stopped of at another couple of historical towns, and also on a strawberry field to enjoy the freshest strawberries possible.

Hej Pa Dej

... friends from work came to help out. At first we were kinda disappointed to find that moving help consisted of 2 women, and their two daughters. Our visions of a few Viking sized men to fling huge pieces of furniture on their shoulders were dashed. But soon we discovered that Linda and Kristen had some Viking blood in them. Neither was tiny and both lugged boxes marked 'Very Heavy' with ease. We finished of moving most of the big stuff in the early ...

Kristianstad.... what can I say???

... certain challenges: detailed descriptions in Swedish with just a few words in English. However, between us we managed to choose something, the highlight being the enormous deep fried prawns... More tomorrow or later. I am in trouble for not having finished my writing up before Sarah came out of her Swedish class so must go and be taken clothes shopping (which as anyone who knows me is aware is not my idea of a good time!).

Arrival in Lund

... streets and everything mixed with a younger university town feel. A third of this town is students so there's always a party somewhere. Finding my way home after the party is another story. I haven' t had a chance to tour around Lund with my camera yet, but I'll put them up here when I do.

I Put My Feet in the Baltic and Found it Cold

... and Jill went shopping. We eventually got to see a small castle (which really couldn't be called a castle), the twisting tower, and the Sweedish side of the Batlic Sea. Two of the splintered groups got back together to go home, while Antonio and Carla stayed to move onto Lund the next day. (Carla and Antonio spent the night with a very nice Communist lady and went to one of their meetings.)

Hjemme igen

... blev spredt for alle vinde. Vi blev et par dage i byen, inden vi rejste tilbage til Danmark på deres Uafhængighedsdag, hvor himlen var fuld af tusindvis af drager og alle inderne var i godt humør. Gaderne var øde, for alle stod med deres drager på hvert et hustag. Næste morgen ankom vi til Kastrup lufthavn, trætte men mange oplevelser rigere. Vi glæder os til at se jer alle sammen og håber at I har haft en god sommer! Stine og Ditte

I'M Back

I'm back. Issues have been the story of the trip so far. First the Internet, now my computer holds a charge for 6 minutes. There is Internet access in the lobby, but my comuter dies so fast it is impossible, plus you can't plug it in w/out a converter. Oh Well. Quick Background: Our hotel is located in the middle of farms. Our broadcaster described it as the findley to toledo ohio strech of I-75 as a comparison. Outside of the hotel yesterday it ...
