E-mail of Saturday August, 2nd, 2014

 

Hej alla!

The last mail was just sent, when on the boat to Sweden we decided to change our plans radically. I asked Remy if I could do a crazy proposition and I could (He is used to my crazy propositions). 'Let's continue along the coast till Gothenburg and cross over with a ferry to Frederikshavn in Jutland (DK).... 'Ok', Remy said. I almost fell over the railing in to the sea of surprise. Remy, who recently would not cycle a roundtrip the other way around because we hadn't plan it that way, just said 'Ok'. He did add that it would depend on the weather. Only if the weather on the westcoast of Sweden was better then in Copenhagen.

Once we arrived in Ystad, we went to the
Tourist information for much needed maps and looked on the internet for the weather information. That appeared to be favorable to Sweden and so we're cycling to Gothenburg...

The Swedish west-coast is flat and we have the wind in our backs. The weather is still great. Not searing hot, but warm with every now and then a cloud.
Yesterday we went to IKEA in Malmö. Just to see a 'Swedish' IKEA for once. And the meals are cheap!

Med vänlig hälsning,
Remy & Gea vanuit Helsingborg
