Puppy Exhibit
We heard about the puppy exhibit that was taking place in the exhibition hall of Malmö and of course we had to go check it out. I didn't find my favorite breed, the Lhasa Apso, which I didn't really expect to find since it isn't very common here. It was kind of hard taking pictures in there too. I deactivated my flash in respect to the dogs and puppies move around a lot so a lot of the pictures came out in a blurr.
Siberian Husky
This is my boyfriend's favorite breed. I think it is a very beautiful dog but I don't think I would want to have one in the city. It is gorgeous though.
I'm Calling this Dog Number 2...
I asked about the name of this breed but I don't remember what it was. I think it's a very interesting dog, some famous photographer (don't remember the name of him either) took a lot of pictures of his dogs wearing clothes and placed in situations where they looked almost human. Very interesting pictures and not at all as blurry as this one...
The Naked Little Fellow
I just thought he looked kinda cute. In a funny looking way.
Turning Torso
Drove past the Turning Torso on our way to Österlen.
UFO?
Took this one from the car, outside of Ystad on our way to Hammenshög Inn. Spook-ey.
Hammenshögs Inn
My boyfriend sitting at our table at Hammenshög Inn. Amazing old place from the 1660's or something. Rumor says it even has a ghost roaming the halls. We went there to celebrate the traditional Swedish Mårten Gås (gås=goose). It's really a tradition that is held during this time of year only in the southern parts of Sweden. I believe that it is French in origin.
Black Soup
The Goose fest starts off with Black Soup (Svartsoppa), though I don't know if that is the correct translation for it. The main ingredience of this soup is blood, which is why I always go with the additional Lobster Soup which according to my boyfriend is wrong wrong wrong. He likes the bloody soup (pun intended). After the soup you have your goose with potatoe, gravey, apple sauce etc and to desert a Skånsk (which is what we call of the south of Sweden) apple pie.
Coffee
I just had to take a picture of this cup. I generally don't like these types of coffee cups but I thought this one was very pretty.
Inside the Inn
This one and the following pictures will need no further explination. It's pictures taken from inside the Inn. Just to show that feeling of ancient Swedish interior design.

The second dog is a Weimeraner (short haired). Google for a picture of the long haireds, they're lovely!
Third dog is a Chinese Crested dog.
And what a cool inn!

Douglas tycker det är väldigt oförskämt av dig att inte ha fotat några taxar...han säger att det är diskriminerande.
Han hälsar och säger att 5 tuggben per post bör gottgöra ditt lilla misstag :D
helen: Thanks. That sounded familiar though I doubt I will remember it in an hour or so :) I knew what the third dog was named in Swedish but I had no idea what it was called in English.
The Inn was amazing. We are thinking about staying over for a weekend sometime in December. If I can get over the ghost story :)
Susan: Jag har en hälsning till Douglas: Bite Me!
