It's funny that to many in Skåne, Copenhagen is much more of a Capital than Stockholm can be. Copenhagen is about 1hr and 30mins away by train and Stockholm is 4-5 hours away from Eslöv. So off I go to Danish land!! To get there, the train goes on the Öresundsbron (Öresund bridge) and then on a tunnel under the sea. The trip is quite short on this section of the journey and you could come and go and not know that since all you see is the water and then the tunnel. Day 1 Cold wet morning, it was about [View Full Entry]

It was a busy day for Mirjam and I! We headed to Malmö and had quite a list to cover. Our first stop was at the Malmö Museum which is located at the Malmöhus Castle. It's Sweden's oldest surviving renaissance castle and a monument from Malmö's Danish period. Hard to believe but this castle houses 4 museums on the inside! Yup, you can find the City Museum, the Natural History Museum, the Aquarium and Tropicarium, and the Konstmuseet inside. On the outside was the quintessential castle moat. The we headed to The City Hall (Radhuset) of Malmo which is an impressive [View Full Entry]

... so Gabriella said. Strange people these folks who live in Trelleborg. Not to mention the geese crosswalk we saw in Skanör med Falsterbo!! Go figure!! :P Yes, Gabriella was really sweet and kind to show us around ('Trelle': 'tora/wood'; 'Borg': 'forte/fortress') where we saw the viking fortress it was named after. We were a concerned with our trip there since it was advised on TV and papers that a level 3 hurricane was on the way from Denmark to Sweden. And I suppose we were brave enough to go towards it since you can't go further south Sweden when you're [View Full Entry]

Yaaaay, I'm in Eslöv! Leaving Ireland was really something. Once at the airport, I learned my flight reservation was never made, so they couldnt find my name or any details about it. So I had to buy another ticket in the last minute, and made it on time to Copenhagen, Denmark. Mirjam, her mom and kids were anxiously waiting for me at the airport! That was some warm welcome!! :) From there we took a train to Malmö which took us less than 30mins, and there we were in Sweden already! The train goes thru a tunnel under the water and [View Full Entry]

Today is my last day here in Dublin as I head to Sweden tomorrow morning. It leaves me with a bitter taste in my mouth knowing I'll miss all the wonderful people I've met here. All I know is that I'm sure I'll be back here soon sometime. :) This afternoon Eoin drove us to Kiliney Hill and the scenery is 'Grand'!! Well, from the top of it, I saw a lot of Dublin city as well as Enya's Castle! Later today, we drove past Bono's mansion. Boy, these people know how to live it up!! Well, I'll leave you with [View Full Entry]

Today I had an early start. Sometime around 8 or 9, I was in the station by myself to catch the train going to the city centre. Instead of gettting off at Tara st Station, I was at Connolly Station, which is a bit of a long walk back... So I got a visitor map at the station and took the next train back to Tara st Station. As soon as I left the station, there it was: Liffey River. The river basically splits Dublin city in two: North and South side. The North side is known to be a poor [View Full Entry]

This morning I went for a walk at the Dun Laoghaire Harbour and on the way, I strolled by the Dun Laoghaire Park - it was a beautiful morning. When I got half way to the lighthouse to the end of the Pier, I realized it was the best thing I could be doing this morning. Beautiful and peaceful place for relaxing. Then I headed back to the centre of Dun Laoghaire and shopped for stationery and grocery. I stopped back at Mara's before I'd go to the city centre. Dublin city is quite lively and busy, especially because it's Friday!! [View Full Entry]
