Leave Stockhom at 9am. More E4 all the way to Malmö. It rains hard coming out of Stockholm. 415 miles to Trelleborg. In line for the ferry to Rostock I meet some German women coming back from an all-female motorcycle rally in Sweden. Restaurant is closed after the gate so we eat chocolate and chat. It's pretty cold. Beautiful twin rainbow at the dock.

Bikes are loaded on to the ship at 10pm, straight to the restaurant. I didn't get a cabin so I end up crashing on one of the couches in the restaurant. Get about 3-4 hours of sleep.
