Here are a few final thoughts on the wonderful Scandinavia region & its peoples:
* Fairly similar cultures across the four nations - Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark
* They love their bikes - great bike riding paths all across Scandinavian cities.
* An absence of visible public toilets - you have to know where to go.
*Love those Swedish meatballs with brown sauce & loganberries - & you can get them nearly everywhere.
*Really good coffee!
*People are mostly open-minded, welcoming, friendly (when you get to talking), quite hip/cool (those under 45 anyway), nature-loving (watch them flee to their summer houses), & generally laid back.
*Really quite loyal to their country.
*There's not much crime here - the countries generally take good care of their citizens.
*Because of the high tax, alcohol is really expensive (think a min of AUD$15 per glass of wine).
*The natural environment is exquisite!
