This week in Lund... "Inveiling" by Vaclav Havel is being performed this Thursday between 12.00 - 13.00 at the Lunch Time Theater, Pufendorf Institute, Biskopsgatan 3/Sölvegatan 2,  

( 2nd floor, )  Lund. It is not far from the station. Our own Vanessa will be treading the boards as one of a cast of five in the production.  

The National Theatre LIVE season has already started and on Thursday night, 29th March the English play " She Stoops to Conquer" can be seen at the Folkets Hus in Malmo or at other venues in Lund and Trelleborg. See the link for details. The Folkets Hus also hosts live performances from the New York Met. 

Easter Events

Malmo City list many events to be enjoyed at the begining of April so take a look and take your pick, there is loads in the listings.  One in particular caught my eye, and that was the annual Kunstrundan . When artists open their homes so that you can see (and buy if you like) their works and catch a glimpse of their studios. There are also a number of galleries presenting a selection of artists in the area which is useful when planning your route. 

Somewhere for Brunch...?

If you are looking for somewhere to while away a Sunday afternoon, or maybe somewhere to take visitors... there are a couple of spots that may be of interest. Firstly "Nya Trols" on Karlskronaplan offers an informal brunch that is good value at 95 SEK per person including a hot drink and juices.   

Good reports have been received about the NEW  Green Food Market at the foot of the Turning Torso. They offer "the natural joy of food" with good honest produce at a good price, ad a great location too.

And if you enjoyed the ICS lunch at SMAK they do a good Sunday brunch too, but you can't book in advance, so get there in good time. 

Out and about.... CYCLING !

If a dose of exercise is more your style, I just found the neatest website that gives ideas for cycle rides around Skane. Bikemap.net has loads of ideas uploaded by individuals and it gives the length and duration of tour so you can choose one that fits you. You can also upload your own if you fancy. 

Good Dog Parks are essential as the Spring arrives and many of the beaches and open areas are no longer available to walk on with your dog in the holiday season. Many people know of the large park at Ribersborg that is open all year, but there are other options. The City provide a dog exercise map that is handy if you are in the city with your dog or have visitors.
