"Jeez...it didn't look like that much crap on my packing list..." The white tube was intended to protect the poles during the flight to Sweden. I looked all over town trying to find one that was lighter and a smaller diameter, with no luck. Turns out even cut down to where the poles barely fit, the tube was too long to fit in the pack. But hey, at least I saved myself another 0.4lbs...

A dozen ziplock bags and plastic grocery sacks later, and it's all ready to go. The big pack weighs around 23lbs, the small pack around 15lbs...less than my 42lb estimate.

The towers of the cathedral, with the German Apothecary and ruins of two other churches in the middle ground. It was surprising how many ruined cathedrals there were in such a small city.
