Guest guest Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 I mentioned in my reply to Kate, that I would post some photos from Gothenburg (where live and work 4 days a week now). They can be found below.You'll notice that they feature a marina and a bridge. The bridge is called Älvsborgsbron (lit.: "The Ävsborg Bridge), I don't know what the marina is called, but it's right next to the bridge, and both the bridge and the marina are right next to the hotel where is staying during the weeks (and where I stayed when I visited her). I was of course shocked to learn that a terror attack had been planned against that bridge and/or an art gallery nearby on 9/11 this year. It was a bit unclear weather the target was the bridge, or the gallery, or both, but I guess it matters less. Luckily enough the police (together with a SWAT-team) arrested the terrorists-to-be before they had realized their plan. It felt a bit strange watching the area where I was walking and taking photos only a couple of weeks ago, on the news. But it had been about a million times worse seeing/hearing news of a terror bombing right where is staying. You can watch the CNN coverage of the incident here: http://edition.cnn.com/2011/WORLD/europe/09/12/sweden.arrests/index.html?iref=allsearchor here: http://cnn.com/video/?/video/world/2011/09/12/nyberg-sweden-terror-plot.cnn(not sure which link works best).love/Reb 3 of 3 Photo(s) DSCN3521.JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
