Which is of course Sweden.
And it is a beautiful country. We crossed over the Oresund bridge from Copenhagen to Malmo.
This feat of engineering is one of Europe’s largest bridges and the complete tunnel / bridge combination makes it the longest crossing in Europe.
We walked around Malmo for a bit once we arrived – taking in some of the historic buildings, and yes of course some more water features. After a quick coffee we consulted the “bible” and headed south – for the first time in this trip – to Hollviken, and yet another harbour.
We plug in, rev up the laptop and connect to a less than perfect internet connection.
Then it arrives, after many days of clear skies and sunshine we are battered by wind and rain from almost all directions.
The rain bounces off our roof with some lovely plinking noises that keep us awake for a short while until tiredness overcomes us and we nod off to sleep.
Morning comes and, although the rain has gone, the wind has remained – ensuring that any trips out of the van are made with bowed heads and hoods up.
We pile back into the van after taking a shower and head off to the local Viking Museum.
