I'm sitting in the lounge of an enormous car ferry for a restful 9 hour trip between Lubeck in Germany and Malmo in Sweden, and am finally catching up on the blog. Unfortunately it's been drizzling all day and there's not much to be seen of the coastline scenery we were hoping for.
We had our last night in Germany in the pretty medieval town of Lubeck. We only had a few hours so wandered round town in the afternoon, and then continued the multicultural theme and went to a Greek restaurant for dinner. Turned out to be in a street of restaurants where there was live music - not just a guy with a guitar, which is what we thought initially - but a full-on street party and sing along. John Denver, Neil Diamond. Country Road. Sweet Caroline. Four Non Blondes - hey, hey, hey, what's goin' on...... 😀
As latecomers, though, we were seated inside. As the demand grew out in the street, the waiters kept picking up tables and chairs and moving them outside. The room got emptier and emptier until there were just two tables left inside (us and one other couple) and a great big empty space, with staff rushing past us, back and forth from the kitchen and out the door with half litres of beer balanced on trays.
Definitely a meal to remember.
We're not far out from Malmo now, with Denmark on the left. The rain has stopped so we're going to get some air. More to come in a few days...
