Malmo

Loved Malmo. We had amazing accommodation at Hotel 2wenty 6ix which was close to the train station (very important), and on the edge of Malmo Old Town which we found quite enchanting. Old buildings, cobblestone pavement that's very hard to walk on, heaps of restaurants, bars and cafe's, and an amazing art gallery that we wanted to buy all of the artworks.

Malmo is also featured in the Netflix series "The Bridge", referring to Øresund Bridge, which we travelled across by train on three occasions. Never got to see it from a distance but certainly saw it up close. The bridge is 16km long, half the bridge is a tunnel below the ocean, linking Malmo in Sweden to Copenhagen in Demark. The tunnel is the Denmark side.

Mark found a boat he liked, an old ice breaker with an interesting history. The "Bore" icebreaker boat is an historic Swedish steamship built in 1894. It's one of the world's oldest operational steam-powered icebreakers, used for breaking ice in Swedish waters, now a museum ship in Malmö.
