<b>Hej!</b> This time we will be cycling (and walking) with the highest carbon footprint: in 2 cities, in 2 Scandinavian countries. The virtual receptionist didn't give us such a warm welcome as the human one. Copenhagen is a very relaxed (even when it's not raining), tidy and safe city. It has 650,000 cyclists. We visited the highest peak in the city, from where you can also ski. The hill is actually a huge building where garbage is burned inside to produce electricity and heating. We rented bicycles for moving between point A and point B. We managed everything in the app: finding available bikes, unlocking, returning and paying rides based on time of use. We were able to visit many attractions and museums with the City card. Andersen's city icon is always shown in tourist brochures from land. When retired cops have to guard the Queen's guards. 90° gravity room in the »Is it true or not?« museum. Denmark cycling infrastructure is not only comfortable, but also architecturally <i>fascinating</i>. We tried~biked~approve it! Cycling is written in their DNA. Each resident of Copenhagen rides an average of <b>9.2 km</b> every day (3,358 km/year). You can take the Swedish style home in Danish style. They rushed to the wedding in a recreational style. We were afraid of the Nordic wet weather. But with new, unworn shoes, it was always dry and comfortable. The Danes rank among the happiest nations in the world. A stable, rich country with the highest level of social justice in the EU. Opera ~ the 2nd most expensive in the world. It was financed by Maersk ~ the 2nd largest container shipping company in the world. The headquarters are on the other side. Afternoon rush hour, when everyone <i>happily</i> rides home at the same time along 4.6 km of bike lanes. What sound is the guide playing if it's so funny? The queue for traditional Danish sandwiches (prices for 1 piece). Otherwise, lunch in <i>ordinary</i> restaurants will set your card back by €20-40. We paid for everything by card. In some places, this is the only way. We bought a ticket for the roller coaster in the amusement park online. Convenient, because at the end of the trip there are no unspent kroners. We rather stay in new hotels with fewer stars than in an <i>evergreen</i> hotel with many stars. We took the train under the sea and across the bridge to the Swedish side. From the Malmö station we explored the city further. <b>Hallå!</b> In a city with 350,000 inhabitants, you get the feeling that <i>Eurovision</i> is already underway. Should I have taken a picture through the hole for a famous selfie and then also lean on the lighthouse? After visiting the disgusting food museum, you can't miss the bar with 20 progressive flavors and <i>tasty</i> foods. In a few more years of global warming, we'll be able to go swimming in Sweden. We are finishing the mobility week at the 2nd tallest building in Scandinavia. We award the city 12 points for wide cycling avenues. We spent just over €1,500 for this educational and delicious trip. We bought souvenirs and flew home satisfied.
