Scandinavian Saga
Thursday, June 9th, 2011Last week was our wedding anniversary so we decided on a romantic trip to Copenhagen, with a three day excursion to Malmo and Ystad in Sweden. The last time I was in Copenhagen was nearly 50 years ago (frightening thought!)
We stayed at a great little hotel overlooking the Nyhavn canal almost opposite Hans Christian Andersen’s house.
I have never seen so many classic cars out on the roads as we did on this trip, and most of them spotted right outside our hotel – here are a few but annoyingly are all out of order:
Ford in Ystad
DKW in Copenhagen
Next in the queue at Heathrow.
A couple of classic bikes
Pontiac in Copenhagen
Hippy bus at the Distortion concert
Two British brutes outside the Aldi supermarket
Dodge Charger
Chevvy
Tram in Malmo
I was very disappointed in Sweden, I’ve seen more classic Saabs and Volvos in the UK.
This galvanized 2CV parked outside the hotel got much attention
One for Angus – an old pushbike.
Hippy van in the hippy commune of Christania
This is the thinnest building in Copenhagen, and reminded me of the narrow buildings in Vietnam.
Tesla – my friend William McDonough will be pleased…
No idea what this little car in Ystadt is
One of the few Volvos spotted in Seden – in an art installation!
I just loved that big rear end!
