Supposedly, the real Hamlet had something to do with this place and old Will Shakespear stole the story from here !!!!! We took a tour, walked around the rest, and just hung out. It was pretty good, but it was getting late. and we wanted to buy some Guin on the boat. Well actually, Gin in the can mixed with grapefruit. Lollywater, but went down well !!!!! Once back in Helsingborg, which is Sweden, we had a look at their castle, ...
