Oops, three weeks have passed with out me blogging, since I was out having fun on vacations. But I returned to Spain a few days ago, and I'm going to get everything updated.
Malmö, Sweden boasta two different architectural marvels. The first is the Øresund Bridge between Copenhagen and malmo, which was built in 2000 and is a combined tunnel/bridge. When I arrived in the airport at Copenhagen I traveled to Malmö under the Øresund Sound for four kilometers until the train emerged on an artificial island and travelled another eight kilometers on a bridge.
Malmö doesn't really look like you'd expect Sweden to look. It's in the south near the Baltic Sea, and it's very flat without any hills or elevation. The coast is a prominent part of the landscape and it has mild winters. It's obvious how someone like my cousin, who has lived in Amsterdam and Copenhagen, would like living here.

The second thing is a twisted skyscraper which is called the Turning Torso. It looks as if the side of the building rotates 90° as it climbs 54 stories. I took a photo with this building and my bicycle for social media - members of my choir are all photographing our choir tote bag in exotic locations, and Malmö is as exotic as it got for me this summer.

Ups, han pasado tres semanas sin una entrada mientras disfrutaba de unas vacaciones. Pero hace tres días regresé a España y voy a actualizar mi blog.
La ciudad de Malmö, Suecia, es famosa por dos maravillas arquitectónicas. La primera es el Puente de Øresund entre Copenhague y Malmö, que se construyó en 2000. Es una combinación de puente y túnel . Cuando llegué al aeropuerto de Copenhague, fuí a Malmö en tren de manera subterránea viajando cuatro kilómetros desde el estrecho de agua de Øresund hasta llegar a la superficie en una isla artificial, finalmente, viajé casi ocho kilómetros más en un puente.
El segundo monumento importante es la torre giratoria, que se llama Turning Torso. Parece que un lado del edificio gira 90º mientras el edificio sube a lo largo de sus 54 plantas. Tomé una foto de la torre y de mi bici porque los miembros de mi coro toman fotos de las bolsas de nuestro coro para nuestras redes sociales.
Malmö no se parece a lo que la mayoría de la gente espera que sea Suecia. Está en el sur, cerca del Mar Báltico, y es muy plano, sin ninguna colina. La costa es una prominente parte del paisaje y tiene inviernos suaves. Está claro que una persona como mi prima, que vivió en Amsterdam y Copenhague, quiera vivir en esta ciudad.

Never heard of this place and now I want to visit. Many thanks.
Sue, I will probably be a regular visitor now that my cousin lives there, but I can definitely recommend it! It´s easy to get to via Copenhagen, and had a big immigrant population which leads to excellent and diverse restaurants.
Glad you are back online! I'm also glad that I am back in shoes!
