[charlyno]

was from April 17 ... (my first official day on earth Viking) that looking at the "Sweden on the road" dl my site that says "Work in progress" ... I was out of tune a little bit! There were some beautiful days, sunny and warm and I would love to have my bike ..
Since June, however, I have to wait to pick her up and this section is devoted to touring in Sweden and beyond, taking advantage of a half day today I had my first ride on the road in Viking land .. even if by car. 80 km of pure pleasure! I was prepared for this ride the bike .. but I could not resist! All roads immersed in the Swedish countryside. First stop about 15 miles from Malmo in a small pond where they are numerous species of birds to nest. Outside, a beautiful surprise. A magnificent church which dates back to 1200 surrounded by greenery. Immediately after un'antichissimo windmill on a hill with a breathtaking view. Then I came across a forest at Castle Torups, just wonderful. A few kilometers and once magnificent church of 1100! A real surprise .. the interior completely frescoed with paintings dating back to medieval times. A spectacle. Through vast yellow meadows are reached in Castle Hackeberga. Pure magic, its gardens and the huge lake that surrounds it. And finally, through the forest to the castle .. I returned home literally ecstatic! Pending a detailed report ... enjoy!

Wow, great pics. We spent the summer of 2010 in Sweden, we have friends in Ahus and Linkoping. spent most of our time in Skane, but managed to get as far north as Stockholm. The whole time we where there, we wished we had our motorcycles. Tack for minnena!
