Last blog from Sweden for a while

I am sitting in the Ängelholm McDonald's since they have WiFi here (and in all McDonald's I think.)

Well, the long summer is over and I am now driving the car down to France before going back to Australia. I use the word summer loosely since it has also been a lot of almost autumn-like weather. The last few days were spent being a tourist with my girlfriend from the UK. It is always nice when you have visitors that make you go and see things you haven't seen before.

One of our outings was to Läckö Slott, and it was beautiful and very interesting.



After the guided tour and the tour of the beautiful gardens we spent a few minutes waiting for the ship Sigrid Storråda to sail past us. We had seen people go onboard in costume from the era and we were really looking forward to seeing them row out and then set sail. But no, serious disappointment when they came chugging out with a motor; not cool!!


I have to leave this lovely little cocoon now and get out on the roads again. I just get so sleepy. I have already had two little naps and I am not even in Denmark yet. Stay tuned for more from the road!!
