Photos of the various caches will be posted later as I haven't been able to synchronise my dropbox, nor have I been able to actually log the caches.

This morning I woke up at 4:30am, far too early to get out
of bed, but too awake to just lay down. As we had to get up at 6am anyway for
the washing I got my Kindle out and with my phone as a torch I read a bit.
Why the washing so early on Sunday I hear you ask. Well, Dianne has a small unit in an apartment
block and there is no room for a washing machine. The apartment block has a communal laundry
for all the residents and it has to be booked.
This laundry consists of two rooms with two washing machines each and a
dryer and one drying room where clothes hang on the line. See photos:

After the washing had been done we packed a picnic lunch and
went for a drive south to Skanor-Falsterbö and Höllviken. We visited a viking museum: Fotevikens Museum (which was closed), and drove through a few villages.

We picked up some caches on the way and
Nelson got to play on the beach and in the water.

On the way back we popped into Vellingeblomman, a huge nursery which also sells outdoor furniture
and anything related to gardening. There
we walked through a huge Halloween
display area.

Last night we spent some
time planning a few day trips. The three
of us were going up to Stockholm and Rengsjö, but Dianne has decided to stay
home and save her money, because it’s approx 900 kms and an expensive
trip. I have contacted friend Ria in Rengsjö who Patricia and I now are going
to visit together.
As Dianne has to go to work for an
hour Patricia and I and Nelson the dog accompany her to Vellinge. After I have
sorted out some problems with my travel SIM and topped it up we look at some
shops until it’s time to head back to Dianne’s workplace.

Sometime later we drive into Malmö
where we buy Chinese for lunch which we have in the park near Sweden’s (or
rather Scandinavia’s) tallest building, Turning
Torso. It’s not its height (190m), but the way the building is built, which
makes it so impressive. Every floor
rotates by 1.6° so that the top of the building (54 stories) has a twist of 90°.
