On the train...On the train...On the train...

...to Sweden (with a wind farm on the ocean)
Well...jumped on the train and went to Sweden for the day (as you do in these parts)
Got off at a lovely town called Malmo (with 2 little dots above the 'o') and had a meander around from
about 10am until 4pm.
The place was getting ready for a big festival of art and music and street performances so there
was a lot of hussle and bustle about, but was a pleaseant day all round....not just because the sun
popped its head out and the rain took the day off, but the sights and the lunch i had was pretty good also.

Only cost about $20 oz to get on the train, and we went over the longest bridge that i have ever crossed
to get there....

The trip back was a little different because the train broke down at the Copenhagen Airport terminal so
everyone had to get off and wait for it to be taken away and another train turned up and took us back into the city....but its all part of the adventure!
