Malmo & Copenhagen 2016

Back in March we headed up to Malmo again for a roller derby tournament. We had gone last year for the same tournament and one of the biggest draws? Pizza salad! Yes, Raymond also thinks I am ridiculous to be so excited about pizza salad. I didn't take that many photos in Malmo as we were mostly just at the tournament, but we did spend a day in Copenhagen before coming home. This time we didn't use the public transportation in Malmo and decided to just walk instead. Everything is fairly close and it is much easier. Above is our lunch from Pizzeria Rex - A taco pizza and a gyro pizza with the aforementioned pizza salad! So tasty


We were going to get burgers for dinner, but the burger place was packed as they were running a special for roller derby people. So we headed to a nearby Indian place instead and had some tasty Indian foods.


The second day it snowed! Just a little bit, but I loved it! This is the view from our room


And another.




We went back to the burger place - The Vegan Bar - for lunch as we figured it might not be as crowded (and we were right). They had a special burger with onion rings and lots of delicious things on it. So good.


Walking back to roller derby after lunch




Another grey day in Malmo. If you look at my photos from last year they are the same.


Roller derby!


After the weekend of roller derby it was off to Copenhagen for the day before our flight. We wanted to get there early enough to take the free tour so we were up and about and ready to go.


I totally didn't bring the right clothes for walking around in the cold. I was freezing!! I didn't bring my winter coat because...well I blamed it on just being in CA where it was warm. So I was all messed up. But yeah next time I need to be prepared! Now here are some photos from our tour around Copenhagen.

After the tour it was time for lunch and hot beverages to get warm. We went to Kalaset and had burgers - chickpea patties with tahini mint dressing, coleslaw, grilled zucchini and peppers, and chili jam. Served with roasted potatoes. These were amazing. Definitely goes on the list for when we are in Copenhagen again.


We also had a slice of chocolate cake. Yum!

After lunch we just wandered around - and found the Lego store!























Then it was off to the airport for our flight home. We got there early and looked to see if we could find some dinner. We had falafel salad which was alright. A bit dry, but it was one of the only vegan options and it was fine enough. So there you have our weekend in Malmo/Copenhagen

Campervan Adventures in Iceland: Final Thoughts

That is it for our Iceland adventures! I wanted to post one last wrap up just to say a few things I didn't put elsewhere, or organize my overall thoughts in one place. 

Campervan Adventures in Iceland: Ferry home - Tórshavn

The boat home was just as smooth and uneventful as the ride to Iceland. We left Iceland at 8pm Wed, Thurs at 3pm we arrive in Tórshavn and had a few hours to wander around, then back to the boat for the night, Friday was at sea, and Saturday we arrived in Hirtshals at 11am. 

Krabi Town, Thailand - Day 2

Our second day in Krabi town was just a half day. We had until 2pm to hang out and explore before we headed off to Phuket. We got up early and went in search of breakfast hopeful that some of the places that were closed the night prior would be open - and luckily they were! Well a lot were still closed, but the best looking place was open so it was perfect. Raymond's plate of food   And mine - only $1.25! Such a steal and super delicious. We both had rice noodles and yakisoba and ham log, and Raymond got some greens and I tried a curry looking thing with lots of weird vegetables I had never had before. It was pretty tasty, but it was a fish curry with mock fish in it and well I have never been a seafood fan so probably not my best choice. I just went by what things looked like since I don't read Thai.  After lunch we went to explore Wat Kaew Korawaram up on the hill.  There was this abandoned park along the stairway up to the temple with wild animal statues
