Helsingborg

I first need to make one small correction: the town of Kronborg castle is Helsingor. I'd got the name confused with Sweden's sister town across the Oresund. And it was the ferry we took across the water to Helsingborg, one of those huge ferries that carries lorries and cars. Here they run about every 20 minutes. As each ferry leaves a new one arrives. The journey across was very fast and Katarina was clearly in a lot of pain with her feet. She's shown so much maturity these past few days it's been difficult to tell how much pain she's in as she's been so polite. As we arrive in Sweden the rain, that had been predicted for days, eventually arrived with a slight drizzle. At Helsingborg we had no more energy to visit the town or another tower, which was one of the town's highlights, so we just stopped in at a Subway sandwich bar that was opposite the station, to the curious glare of a crowd of local kids. From here we got the first train back to Malmo and limped back to our room for our first early(ish) night so far - about 10pm, well 11pm-12am by the time my head hits the pillow (we have to check out of each hotel every morning so I have to plan clothes and repack every evening).
