Sweden

11.5: SWEDEN

While Sarah and I were in Copenhagen, we took a day trip over to Malmö, Sweden, which is just a 30 minute train ride from Copenhagen. While researching what to do, we read about the Oresund Bridge, which connects the two countries, and subsequently discovered a TV show called The Bridge...we watched the trailer that morning and were completely hooked. When we got back from Sweden, we bought and watched the entire first season of 10 episodes in four days. But, I digress.

Our trip to Sweden included a little walking tour through the square, a walk through a beautiful park and cemetery to get to the Malmö Castle, and seeing the Malmö Cathedral. We thought we could go into the castle, but we had to pay an entrance fee and we weren't so keen on that. So, we wandered through Malmö, visited a cathedral instead, and got back on the train to Copenhagen to start The Bridge.

I loved this windmill!

Sweden was a lovely little day trip, and we had gorgeous weather for all of our walking!
