I drove from Stockholm to Uppsala this morning, and then from Uppsala to Jönköping this afternoon. My E61 was freshly washed as we got off the ferry this morning, but you should see it now...

The E4 is basically dry, but all of the melting snow has created some major wet areas (+7.5°C in Norrköping). I still have another 1100km to drive in the next two days, so this could be interesting!

Is 10 liters of windshield wiper fluid enough?!

More pics will come when we get back to Finland.

No worries. I am better at driving in any major Swedish city than I am at driving in Helsinki!

We have the Jönköping-Halmstad-Lund-Växjö route tomorrow. 560km.

Diesel is expensive here! 12 SEK/liter (1,20?/liter). Holy crap...

1620km in Sweden over three days... The Swedes are extremely efficient at spreading Urea all over the motorways, which melts snow and slush even when it is -10°C.

I will try to get a few more of these vile, winter pics before going to the car wash. My E61 has never been this dirty.
