New York to Malmo, Sweden Day 1

After being awake for almost 40 hours because of the trip and of course all the fun things that go along with that!!! So the crew begins to set out to Malmo, Sweden which come to find out is only 30 minutes from Copenhagen. We all link up at the train station (which is kind of fresh being that 30 minutes and your in another country where as 30 minutes in NYC and your in another borough - same state - same country - wun-duh ful!!) and we begin to get certain treats for the ride.

7 Eleven is kind of ill, they don't have the normal junk that they carry here but I was able to see this which seems like a Tic Tac pack on steroids. Gigantor size pack, no normal size so I guess people really need to stock up on these bad boys.

This was a treat, I usually don't drink milk or chocolate milk but Sye and Wane aka Snack Man, were swearing by this and nick named it Fizzy Bubbly. No, no bubble guts here but more like in that movie "Don't Mess with the Zohan" starring Adam Sandler this stuff is amazing. So if you're ever in Denmark treat yourself to some fizzy bubbly aka Cocio.

After the quick ride and getting off the train this is one of the first things we see to let us know we ain't in kansas no more Toto. First great piece of art to see in Sweden.

We arrive at the center where the Urban Arts Festival will be held and walking into it we come across this piece from one of the Guys from Chile. You'll see another one in the final post from this trip.

After checking in and all that stuff they take us to where we will be staying. In a Hostel. Yeah I know most of us hear Hostel and bug out like "OH HELL NAWW" bunking with 20-30 strangers and sharing 2 bathrooms being all out in the open but uhmmm yeah my sentiments exactly "OH HELL NAWWW". The art in there was amazing in that place.

Now it's time to get busy. The trippy part is that its like almost 6 or 7 in the evening. The sun doesn't set till around 11pm and even still it doesn't get pitch black till about 3-4am only for the sun to rise around 5am. So while walking back to the festival and talking what do I see out the corner of my eye......zombies and vampires..where the hell am I??

We decide to go over and find out what this is all about..nice theme for a horror flick right?? A handful of Americans of different ethnicities go to a European country and stay in a hostle haunted by zombies and vampires...so anyways we find out that it's a special effects class for horror movies.

This was all we got to do before the night fell upon us (plug for a scary Vincent Price horror laugh)
