... of these fish recipes from her before I forget). Yesterday we drove around Siljansjö, which is a large lake and then checked out the town of Mora and went to a Dalicarlian wooden horse factory. Most of the rest of the time we've been hiking around the area and enjoying scrumptious pastries. So soon my journey will be coming to a close as I return to NY. I hope you all enjoyed my travel blog!

... me down of the hippy trip I discovered another rust hole in the floor plan just on the foot step up into the drivers side cabin.<br> Lizzie made an intereswting observation, we seem to be the only campers with a "hippy van"....in other words, we don't see any other real campers (either type T1/2, T25 or T4's). They all seem to be the retiree type vans or caravan and car set-ups.<br> So Lizzie writes, we drove to Karlstad which is the capital of Varmland. A nice city by the lake and ...

Hey all,<br>I went to uppsala which was a forty minute train ride because there was a few things I wanted to see there and where happened to be my hotel. Uppsala had actually burned down a while back and was rebuilt. It is smaller than I expected. I saw the castle there (not too spectacular) but the botanical gardens (part of the castle) was. It was beautiful.

... that they knew served good Swedish food. Upon arrival, what did we find? The Chinese had taken over. Well, we all like Chinese food especially a buffet with Beer included for only 79sek about $11.00, well let me advise you now, DO NOT EAT CHINESE FOOD IN SWEDEN! After eating, we headed back to L&amp;L's for coffee and some of Foster Lilly's cookies. Sadly, at about 3:00 we had to say our tearful goodbyes with promises to keep in touch and return ...

<br>Woke up this morning in Orebro home of my family. We ate breakfast at McDonalds (really Swedish) well at least the menu was! I never saw sandwiches on an American McDonalds menu. Was a nice change though from the buffets we have been having every morning. We took a ride to where my family home used to be only to be met with a tattoo parlor. I was going to go in and get a tat, but Bruce quickly put a sop to that. After picking a few apples off from my Farfor's ...

... a great time. I hope that my first time meeting them is not my last. I managed to catch the right bus, and even get off at the right stop. The streets seemed very different late at night, walking down them alone. I saw the biggest frog in the world, and it scared the **** out of me! At two I stumbled back into bed, thankful that I didn't have to wake up early to pack my stuff for Stockholm the next day.

Finally, a day to sleep in! And I found out that apparently sleeping in for me now is waking up at quater to eight.<br><br>But, waking up early just gave us more time in Uppsala once we got there. After breakfast we bid goodbye to our gracious host and headed to the train station to catch the bus to Uppsala. After abour an hour on the bus, we found ourselves in central Uppsala. We stored our bags and got right down to the sightseeing. <br><br ...

... guy was not happy) we had enough time to make it to the train. We ran across Stockholms central station, and managed to hop on the train that would go right to Enköping. After a short train ride and a short walk we were at Carina's friends, where we would be spending the nice. After a delicious meal, it was time for bed. I went to bed hoping that the weather would be nice again the next day, we had another full day of sightseeing planned.

... the rain to the grocery store for some ice cream cake. It was a little cold, and I returned quite wet. <br><br>That evening Carina and I went to a friends to try a Finnish style sauna. This involved sitting in a very hot sauna, untill you got too hot and then jumping into the body of water that the sauna is near by to cool down. The sauna was very hot, hot to the point that breathing was kind of hard. But jumping into the cold water after sitting in the extremely ...
