It remained that way during the three days we were there, with not even a glimpse of sunshine; very similar to August back home we hear.

The Ultimate Tourist
My name is Jennie, and i would just like to inform you that there now is a webpage called Theultimatetourist.com, where tourists from around the world finally can get some use from all these photos they have of themsleves, posing by different landmarks and attractions. Here you can choose from over one hundred attractions and typical touristic activities, upload your photos and collect one tourist point for each photo (Remember you have to be in the photo yourself, to prove you were actually there..:). Reach different levels and everybody over 80 points will become Ultimate Tourists. So if you want to compete with your photos, or just spread the word, go inte http://theultimatetourist.com.. Swedes are dominating the top 20 for the moment. Challenge them! :)
