On Contiki we go
SWEDEN | Saturday, 22 July 2006 | Views [452]
After spending a few nights in Zurich which, although expensive, is a nice city situated on a huge lake which we attempted to ride round but found it was just too big. We did as the locals were doing and lounged by the lake after a refreshing swim. Flew to Copenhagen in Denmark for the start of the Contiki tour and toured the Carlsberg Brewery and saw a few sites of the town. After Copenhagen we took a short ferry ride to Sweden then drove for most of the day to get to our campsite in Stockholm. Had a huge night on the town last night and probably gearing up for another tonight. Stockholm is a really beautiful city situated on the coast with many inlets, rivers running in and around the city. A place to visit again with more time. Tomorrow we catch an overnight ferry to Helsinki before heading into Russia. Denmark was very expensive like Switzerland but Sweden's not too bad. Getting sick of changing money though and ending up with all these different coins.
