Scandinavian roadtrip (Part 2: crossing Sweden)

in travel •  8 years ago 

After arriving in Helsingborg I take the highway to Stockholm where I will take the boat to Finland. I have over 16 hours to complete this 350 miles. So I'm not in a hurry.

Even the highway in Sweden is beautiful because of many blooming lupins along the way.

After about 50 miles I take a random exit to discover the landscape. I end up in a small village called Mörkhult. A very quiet but nice place.

The only bad thing there are ants, lots of ants.
And Believe me they can bite you . :(

After I removed all the ants.
I crossed a landscape of forest, water and occasionally a wooden house.

I reached 'Lake Vättern' the second largest lake of Sweden.

The lake and surrounding area are natural areas of great value.

Because it is such a nice place I decide to stay at Lake Vättern until the sun goes down and continue to Stockholm in the dark.

After driving to Stockholm stil have to wait 6 hours for the boat to Finland. So I decided to take a shower at a gas station and look for some party in Stockholm. On my way back I also stay a night in Stockholm. I share your opinion. :)

I also need more time I shoot photos for at least 5 more items on Steemit sturing this trip. Thursday I was back in Amsterdam but before I pushes they post button. I recieve a phone call and have to go to Warschau, Poland.

Ok, you win - I think you move around faster than me ;)

Thank you for sharing your adventure.....:)
