The bridge between Denmark and Sweden, Öresundsbron. It´s 15,9 km long and consists of a bridge and a tunnel. Ships up to 59 meters can pass under the bridge. Are they higher must the pass on the Danish side were the road and Railway goes in a tunnel.

The highest building in Sweden is located in Malmö. Turning Torso is 159 meters high. All building is apartments for rent.

The area where Turning Torso is built in was an area in the harbour that become a Building Fair in 1999. The area is called West Harbour.

And once again, a very nice area with a lot of different houses.

Bunkeflostrand

Hello music lovers!
I thought I putt in some pictures from my home. It´s Bunkeflostrand. Bunkeflostrand belongs to Malmoe and is placed just by the coastline South/southwest of Malmoe.
I´m going to take some more pictures this week so there are more to come.

My house and the SAAB. Swedich car for a Swede. And my dear Honda VFR800i.
Get out of the car you --- Swede!!!!!!

Evening in Bunkeflostrand

The coast is a bird protekted area.

This is the bridge to Kopenhagen and that is Denmark. It takes about 10-15 minutes to drive to Kopenhagen.

Have a nice day and keep swinging //@

Hemma i Malmö / Safe home in Malmoe, Sweden

Ja, så var vi hemma. Resan gick bra men några instrument blev skadade av lastpersonalen även den här gången. Tråkigt att de inte kan respektera gods med märkning "hanteras varsamt".

Det blev inga bilder i detta inlägget men de kommande dagarna kommer bilder från hur det ser ut i Malmö, främst då för alla i Kanada som följt bloggen. Vi måste göra lite PR för vår stad.
Bilder från hemresan kommer imorgon.

Hi all,
We got home safe and our families was really glad to see us. I have got hugs from my two childern all day and evening long. Some more instruments were broken by the freight personnel so it will cost IcelandAir a lot.
The comming days we will publish some pictures from our honme town, Malmö. Please follow our blogg for at least one more week and learn some more about Sweden and Malmö.
Pictures from our trip back home will be published tomorrow.

Br,
Stefan

Thanks and farwell to all our friends in Canada and Halifax

Cheers!

We would like to thank you for all hospitality, kindness and friendliness we have met in Halifax these weeks. It has been a real pleasure to be here.
Thanks to all our friends in RCMP Band, all sweet girls serving at restaurants and bars and all nice people at buses and shops.
We hope to see you soon again.

All the best,
Stefan & Anders

P.S.
We will publish our journey back home on the blogg.




Bagpipe & Pizza party all night long....And of course Single Malt!!!

Näst sista dagen i Halifax

Så var det då (äntligen) slut. Det har varit jätteroligt och det är helt klart den bästa resan som Malmö Brandkårs Musikkår någonsin gjort. Tack till Jan Landgren, Petra Mellbrand och Carolin Landgren som ordnat allt det praktiska. Tack till Johnny Rådén för det fina figget vi gått och till alla musiker som varit med. Jag har aldrig upplevt en bättre sammanhållning i bandet!
