Just one day in Sweden

We all slept long enough this morning to miss breakfast and didn't head out into the bright sunshine until 11am. Gothenburg centre is vibrant and it was easy to wander around and to grab some lunch before extracting the car for the next leg of our journey.

Today's plan was to take advantage of the wide and quiet Swedish motorways to travel via the Königsegg factory. The route planning was good but unfortunately it seems Königseggs are about as common as moose in Sweden - we didn't even get a sniff. Even the brazen "hello, we're from England, can we have a look round?" ploy failed to work.

As we had some time to spare we decided to stop at Helsingborg for a drink and the promise of our first view of Denmark across the water. We did see the Danish coast and the city centre was lovely. The place had a really nice feel about it and the fortification that overlooks the town was an unexpected bonus.

The trip into Malmö was easy too and we dropped Jens off at his friend's before teatime. We've ended up in the Hilton with a room on the 19th floor and a view of the bridge that will take us over to Denmark in the morning.
