Why I Love Public Transportation
On tour in the States, if we stay in a hotel near a venue that's far from the center of town, far from a grocery store, or anything for that matter, it can be a challenge (and quite expensive) to get around with taxis. The thing I think I'll miss more than anything in Europe, honestly, is excellent public transportation. It is exactly why, when staying across the street from our arena and a few miles outside of the city center, I was able to hop on the tram that stopped right by our hotel and get out to see a good amount of Goteburg, Sweden. Not really knowing where to start in this small Swedish city, I decided on the Goteburg city museum. This made for great overview of the history of Goteburg, beginning with the very first primates living on the land, going into the Viking era, and onward. I spent another afternoon visiting the city's famous fish market, and walking the picturesque streets full of shops and cafes, most of which displayed the typical Swedish cinnamon roll in the windows. A standard and famous Swedish treat, everyone must try it once upon visiting Sweden.
