Naturally my time in Stockholm
had to come to an
end with some crazy partying and
that´s
exactly what I
did. Joel and I hit a
two day bender out in
the city:
we tried our best
to get
some segways rented for
the day but we had no luck - "advanced bookings essential" - that doesn´t really suit my style of travel..
Instead we did a
very Swedish thing with the excellent
weather in
mind and
fired up the engångsgrill (
disposable bbq) and hit
the park in Hörnstull.
It was a
perfect day really. It didn´t
feel like
Sweden at all,
especially not in
May!
The weather was up around 22
degrees in
the sun. 
Unfortunately drinking in
the sun all
day didn´t
exactly give
me loads of energy for
pulling an
all-nighter. But with a
little help from
my friends -
particularly from Val, I
actually made it out until after 3
am! Without her smooth moves I wouldn´t have gotten in anywhere at 1am out in Stockholm - to be honest they really shouldn´t have let me in at Berns ;) I
am very fortunate to have such good friends in Stockholm
really. Joel and
Catha always take good care of me,
go out and
have a
great time and
are generally there for
me. Val is
always so in
touch with what´s
going on in
my life, often
even more than I
myself am! All the while
looking out for
my best interests. Last but not least (except in height of course) is
Nataly: so
generous in
opening up her home to me and
making me feel welcome (
despite her heavy social
calendar commitments). Time to cross my first border...
