Hej,
Here are some pictures of Sweden.

This is the view from the wedding reception venue, at 4am. It is light here from about this time until about 10pm. When I get to the far north I'll be basking in the midnight sun.

This is the university library in Lund, I though it was a pretty cool looking building. there is free internet in all public libraries throughout Sweden (and I think Scandinavia) which is a bonus for the cheap traveller.

Just near the library there was this statue of an elephant. hmmm...

This is for the engineers out there, it is called the Twisting Torso, in Malmö. The building goes through a 90 degree twist from ground to roof (54 stories).

On Wednesday we drove north from Göteborg for a couple of hours to go to this place where there are thousands of rock carvings from the stone age. It is pretty crazy that they are still there after so long.

One for the kiwi blokes. I went to a 'museum of design' with Mum and Dad yesterday, they had a display that was focused on what makes a perfect shed. Of course the Swede's were more interested in how it looked and funtioned than the more important aspects of what tools are inside and 'can I fit my Holden inside?'.

This week there have been (literally) truckloads of school leavers driving around town dressed as sailors.

Last night we went to the local amusement park, this roller coaster is called the 'Kanon', becuase you launch off at high speed, this ride lasts all of 30 seconds so it was a bit of a blowout really. We did a bigger wooden one first which was really cool, it was massive, rickety and scary as hell. you should see Dad's face on the picture they take as you go around - pure terror, classic.

We're off to the summer house this afternoon for the weekend, it is a couple of hours east of here in the middle/south of the country.

On Monday we train up to Stockholm, leave the folks behind and meet up with Nathan, then we're off to Helsinki.
