Stopped off at the seaside town of Helsingborg, just over the sea from Denmark. With the country so close I popped over on the ferry to experience a bit of Danish life. The ferries chug back and forth 24 hours a day. The trip only takes 20 minutes and locals have been known to spend the whole day on board, sampling the restaurants and the shops.

For some bizarre reason you can only by Alcohol when in Swedish waters and Tobacco when in Danish waters so the shutters have to keep coming up and down every half hour. The speed of the turnaround of the ferries is impressive. An entire boat is emptied and refilled with cars, lorries and people, all within 10 minutes. So you have to be speedy getting off or you will be bedding back across the channel like and aquatic yoyo.

 Visited the castle of Helsinger, the location Shakespeare chose to set Hamlet. I've been here before but this time they had a trio up of actors prancing around the castle acting out scenes from the play. Quite buzzard to be viewing a room when Polonius suddenly marches into the room, has a little chat, and then yells out the window as he has seen Hamlet frolicking with his daughter.
