Weekend trip

We went on a wee trip this weekend gone, totally took a random road to see a castle that turned out to be having a medieval thing going on, we skipped that as it was a bit much, and there was the whole dog thing as well.

But we went to Söderköping and had a wonder round, it its a pretty small town. though it is a city because of historical things. –
Note – a city in Sweden is over 10000 people not just a cathedral like in England. ( though I think there are a few other factors in the uk now.

But its a small town, it has the canal that goes across Sweden, 390-km long that goes from the baltic to the north sea.

There is a couple of old churches and like all Swedish churches the bell tower is separate. I will have to find out why and post about it.

But this is a cool tower.
