Since 2000 the Oresund Bridge crosses to Copenhagen, Denmark. The bridge was inaugurated 1 July 2000, and measures 8 kilometres (the whole link totalling 16 km), with pylons reaching 204.5 metres vertically. Wikipedia.
It was freaking raining the whole time. Like whole kindheartedly raining. So much for Scandinavia. We were here only for a day trip. Which was suppose to be a BEACH trip. That happens when you live inland for long enough that you long so much to be warm under the sun by the beach. Much hope : Kajit.
Malmö is generally a beachy place with a long line of beaches. But instead, we spent our time indoors cleansing our eyes. Just to say that prices of things here are far lower than anywhere else. Maybe a handful of things sold in Sweden 20 to 30€ cheaper than in Germany.
Due to the unpleasant weather, most pictures were wet and ugly. And I was a yellow Teletubbie. We have so much to laugh at thinking about Malmö, even to the part that we dressed uniformly! Jumpsuits are in style now. (not that you can see any of it clearly)
We were beaching much. It was dreadfully cold and the wind was so strong we could have done our own coast to coast video. behind us was the so-called famous Malmö Landmark, the Turning Torso.
We tried our luck to have comfort at the end of this bridge. The restaurant was closed for a wedding reception. If it were to only be a sunny day...
Walked the Shopping Street again to find a shelter for food. It was all generally as I would say 'non-local' cuisine. We were looking for more of a seafood based thingy (we are in Sweden) but sadly, non. And food prices are quite high, we were so low in our Swedish crones. Lastly, we settled for Asian. So typical Asian.
And Asians are always the best at sweet succulent fresh prawns.
The rain stopped for a bit after our meal.
At least decent pictures in front of the Gov Building.
Goodbye Sweden.
