Swedish people are very nice!

We arrived on a Wednesday and found out that our stroller was missing from the airport baggage area. Staying alone with Simon and Ariane during the day, I was not looking forward to be going out with them for a long walk.

On Thursday we went by train to Malmo to buy a cargobike that we had found on blocket.se, the swedish craigslist. The seller was very nice and offered us, while talking with us about our future use of the cargobike and the fact that we had no more stroller, to lend us one. She was offering to bring it to Lund central station on Monday. Wow!
On Thursday night we went out to a pub, The Bishops Arms, with Nicolas' collegues. He was cheered for biking with the cargobike from Malmo to Lund, and one of his collegues offered him to lend us a stroller for the time we would need it. Nico went to get it at their place, with the cargobike, on Friday.

By Saturday we had our stroller back from the airport delivery service.

We will still meet for a coffee in the forseable future with the cargobike seller, and are happy to have been able to try out the typical swedish stroller: the emmaljunga Nitro or Supernitro equivalent from few years back.

Thanks!
