Malmö

I made a stopover in Malmö in southern Sweden before returning to Copenhagen.

It was pleasant enough, there wasn't any place of a cultural nature that I had to visit; it was just a place to catch my breath.

At the time, the economy was centred around the harbour, being the closest Swedish port to Denmark.

It's amazing that now with the Internet I can look up the names on the buildings and confirm that the photos were taken there.

This Swede was rather protective of her children.

The hostel was in the outskirts of the city and a walk took me past a farm where they were making hay while the sun shone.

The main pedestrian street. It seems that the Øresund Bridge to Denmark has revitalised Malmö's economy, away from heavy industries towards knowledge industries and it's a very liveable place now.
