Old man and the sea

Old man and the sea

I got this picture from the island Ven of the old man on his boat. Made me think of Hemingway.

The beautiful island Ven is situated in the Öresund between Sweden and Denmark. There will be more pictures coming when I catch up with editing my photos from all traveling this summer.

Navigandum est, ha det gött!

Stockholm City Hall

Stockholm City Hall

The Stockholm City Hall was completed in 1923 after 15 years of construction. This 101 year old building is not only for administration but also holds several large halls for larger banquets. The Nobel Prize banquet is held here in December every year. So if you want to rub shoulders with the Swedish royal family you just have to figure out a ground breaking invention or discovery.

The 106 metre high tower it makes a good landmark for Sweden’s capital by the shore of the lake Mälaren.

Keep invent, ha de gött!

Green

Green

I’ve been away to the green island, Ireland. Mostly in Dublin but also a bus tour to Northern Ireland. I have some pictures, that I managed to take between the rain showers, to edit. Last week stopped the process as I’ve been knocked down by the flu for the fourth time this year. Just a picture from the green landscape to let you know I’m still around.

No greenwashing, ha de Gött!

Öresundsbron

Öresundsbron

The Öresundsbro is one part of the connection over Öresund between Malmö in Sweden and Copenhagen in Denmark. The second part is a four kilometre long tunnel and the connection point to the almost eight kilometre bridge is a man made island named Pepparholm.

The bridge has a sail free height of 57 meters and the highest pillar is 203,5 meters. Total length of the connection is 16 kilometres. It has a four lane motorway and beneath a two lane high speed train track. After five years of construction it was inaugurated 1 July 2000. 75 000 passengers travels across this amazing landmark every year.

Let’s connect, ha de Gött!
