Scandic Triangeln Malmö

... birthday, which was true-Indian-Jones-esq adventure and I knew immediately that the standard package tour of South Africa or Kenya was not going to live up this imagery! <br><br>On top of all these requests, Chris and I have the same likes and dislikes when it comes to vacations. The top three dislikes in no particular order would be 1.) tourists, you know the ...

... through Stortogett &amp; took pictures of the Statue of King Karl X Gustav &amp; the fountain, bought a rain jacket and stocking cap and Kaye bought a sun hat. Went to a Nordic design center by Lilla torg (Little Square.) Came back to rest a little and will go to castle museum next. Also walked through another square with flower and fruit stalls and street ...

... a map and tried to work out the best things to do in Malmo. First stop - chocolate factory. The chocolate factory wasn't so much a factory as a shop. Nevertheless, they made fantastic chocolate in any way you could imagine. I had a chocolate pudding with an ice chocolate - wickedly delicious. We bought some chocolate coated almonds for the road and headed off. We then had a look at the castle in Malmo (which looks like a big ...

... pickled. Mayo and mustard ... not too bad, but the light, crisp texture of the onions was definitely the highlight. The grainy, dense bread falls apart quite easily, making it difficult to eat. The chicken salad was served with lettuce, tomato, and herbs - very messy to eat, it was my least favourite of the three. Without a doubt, the best was a crisp, battered fish, with tomato, lettuce, herbs, and a mustardy tartar ...

... and things that weren't there before but just dress up the place to make it more sellable. Good pictures can be the difference with so many people going via the internet to search for housing. It is also quite amusing at how you hide most signs of living when you are going through this exercise. Because the weather was so cloudy we were not able to get any outdoor scenes...but we tried our best. Afterwards Staffan and I headed ...

... action. Lomma 1 was assigned to the 3rd of the 4 heats. During their preliminary heat they were allowed two races to qualify into the semifinal. For the preliminary races they raced in the boat sponsored by Folk Spel, a Swedish lottery bingo sort of company. They placed 2nd in both of those so advanced because the top 3 of each of those heats went on to the two semifinal heats. Then in the semifinal again the top 3 would ...

... boarding pass, I had 2 concerns. One, I realized that the flight they put me on wasn't another SAS flight. It was another airline - Air Berlin. This concerned me because this was the same situation that led me to lose my bags when I arrived in Copenhagen. I talked to the SAS lady and she ensured me that my bags would be there. Where did I hear that before? The other concern was that my new boarding pass didn't have my official paper ticket attached to it like my other boarding ...

... me more than fifteen minutes to obtain the information. And when I returned out in the street, it was as if I had arrived in an entirely new city. København was basking in the sun, and the prettiest one at that, the one right after the rain. Incredible. Tivoli Gardens entrance structure was suddenly bright yellow, and both Rådhus and "Palace" hotel looked entirely different, too. Whole city livened up as if someone had snapped their fingers and woken it up. As for me ...

... in these old army barracks starting their own little city and the government just let them stay... and hell, its been so long now that its hard to kick em out, although i think the government is slowly trying to end its existence... its pretty much a self sustaining village... with restaurants, markets, workshops, and living areas... i think over 700 people call it home... theres a lake and some forest area with ...

... worried as I rounded the corner, and saw that the line kept going! By 10:10 I was looking for someone with security to flag over and ask if I could skip to the front of the queue, but of course there was no one to be found! At 10:20 I finally flagged someone over. After telling him I had fifteen minutes until my connection he pulled my out of line and walked me to the front of security. At the front of the line there was about five people who were just plain rude. I ...
