The Sweden Life

Following Jessica's adventures in Sweden, the home of pop!

Today was quite fun and interesting. We went on another boat trip, this time to the archipelago (group of islands) near Goteborg. We got off at one to have a look around. It was strange because they aren't allowed cars so they travel on mopeds or electric bicycles which push small wooden trailers. The islands were quite rocky, so the flat spaces were full of houses. The houses were lovely too, in colours like red, yellow, orange, white or blue with spotless white doors, windows and picket fences.

We then took the ferry back to the mainland and the tram to the city where we ate at a nice restaurant, then went to see what was going on for the Kalaset. At the Packhuskajet (no idea what that is in English) we found Zlips, the dansband of the year 2003-4, according to their bus.

Then it was time for the Abbashow! It was quite ace to see an Abba tribute who were actually Swedish - it could almost be the real Abba reformed (and young again)! They were very good, too.

A pretty church on the island:

Look, it's ABBA!
