Delicious lunch at Grand Hotel in Mölle up there, on the top of the hill.

Nimis_1

The entrance to Nimis (Latin for too much) in the royal republic of Ladonia. Ladonia is one square kilometer of land on the Kullaberg Peninsula in Southern Sweden. The path to Ladonia is about 2.5km through the woods along a winding path to the sea to explore a 75 ton sculpture/labyrinth made of driftwood by Lars Vilks.

Bridge

The Øresund bridge is the longest combined road and rail bridge in Europe, joining Sweden to Denmark, right next to our camp site.

Sunday 24 May Apelviken

Drove to Göteborg and did a bit of Sunday shopping. You can pay the smallest amount in Sweden with your credit card & PIN number. Unfortunately the charity shops were closed, so we headed south to camp for free right next to the 2 km beach at Apelviken next to Varberg.

A group of these little ringed plovers entertained us during breakfast near the waterfront at Tångevik.

We had looked at Smögen but really did not like it so we drove to Marstrand to enjoy a traffic free little island.www.marstrandscamping.se

Sunday was a treble rain day. We couldn’t get into the Stadhuset to see the room where the Nobel prizes are awarded. Here’s a nice dry picture of the inner courtyard instead.

Friday 15 May Stockholm Vasa Rut

Retro_2
Today was an antiquities day, starting with some clothes. There are so many vintage/second hand shops that Gerhild was suffering from sensory overload.

Vasa
Then antique ships when we had a peek  at the amazing Vasa

Reunion
Antiquities? No way! Reunion with Rut after forty years, in the Panorama bar on top of the Kulturhuset

Free parking in Trosa Harbour.

Wikipedia says – Today Trosa is one of the top four wealthiest communities in Sweden (32% of the population earns more than 1,5 million SEK a year.) Many famous people have summerhouses in or close to Trosa, for example the well-known chef, hunter and actor Per Morberg as well as Tommy Körberg, the Swedish Royal Family, Mikael Persbrandt, ABBAs Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus.





After checking in to Bredäng Camping – First stop in Stockholm – the fantastic Fotografiska Museum

Vee Speers

GB. England. Weymouth. 2000.
GB. England. Weymouth. 2000. Martin Parr on the subject of Englishness – or what is it? This is what we came up with at 5:30 this morning.

Saying sorry when someone steps on your foot. Nostalgia for the days of empire. Having no interest in languages other than English. Sherlock Holmes, Miss Marple, William Brown, Doctor Who, Mr. Bean, Basil Fawlty, Monty Python. Class consciousness. Land of hope and glory. Eccentricity. Self effacing. A certain tolerance. Mustn’t grumble. Put on a good act. Beating around the bush. Miles. Pounds, shilling and pence. Driving on the left. Glorious isolation. Fish & chips, steak and kidney pie, bangers and mash, chicken tikka masala, brown ale. The Daily Mirror, The Beano, The King James Bible. George Formby. Fish paste sandwiches. Tidy queues at bus stop.

Sunday 10 May Karlskrona

Today we had a look at Karlskrona. Sweden is closed on Sundays. I ate my first Köttbullar from the very meaty, low-veg. buffet in the Marinemuseum. Gerhild could only find some floury veggie burgers. All of the fish were out at sea, hiding.

Dentist
Just in case your Swedish doesn’t include the word for dentist…

Twelve Tweeters

A clock with roots that occasionally hoots. The time it can tell without even a bell. Ask it nicely and it will tell you precisely, but if no one’s around it won’t make a sound. A dozen on their perch won’t leave you in the lurch, the assembled dawn chorus will sing something forus. To make time a pleasure – a real treasure – not just something to measure.

To Tell The Time

Push the button – there are two parts to the time

  1. For the first part, the birds stretch their necks to show the number of hours from 1 to 12. You can look out of the window to see if it’s morning or afternoon.
  2. For the second part, each bird is responsible for 5 minutes, so for example, if the fifth bird sings that means twenty-five past.

Mark Brandenburg du Schöne
Als einst der liebe Gott die Welt erschuf
Hatte Land Brandenburg noch keinen Ruf
Und weil zuletzt er kam an dieses Fleckchen
Hatte er nur noch Kies und Sand im Säckchen
Das war ihm aber nun doch ganz fatal
Nur Streusandbüchse war ihm zu banal
Er öffnete sein Füllhorn in der Hand
Streute von allem etwas über’s Land
Da purzelten die Flüsse und die Seen
Die Bäche und die Täler und die Höhen
Die schwarzen Moore und die tiefen Kehlen
An Schönheit sollte hier im Land nichts fehlen.
