Thanks for a great podcast!
Concerning getting around in Sweden, the EU rail pass seems way to expensive. Instead book your tickets at the English site of the national railway operator, http://www.sj.se/sj/jsp/polopoly.jsp?d=10&l=en Tickets can be picked up in machines at the railway station.

Hi Chris, There is a broken link to the MP3 on episode 115 (Sweden). Thanks for taking a look, We are in MSP right now, about to fly overnight to AMS then Stockholm. We are staying with friends in Uppsala, and hope to see some of the places we heard about in the other Sweden episodes.
