Orebro West Scandic

Start at the beginning; and when you come to the end, stop!

So I am still at the beginning of this trip, still at home in Sweden, but I leaving in three days. I have lots to do, I still did not start packing, but I will soon, I hope.

Browsing a little bit in my study literature about Benchmarking, I found this wonderful poem by R. D. Laing that made me feel bit better.

"There is something that I don't know
that I am supposed to know.
I don't know ...

... on the way but the lack of sunlight made packing up the tent slow because I didn't want to put it away wet. The inside of the van got the once over with my new cigarette lighter plug in vacuum cleaner (which incidently couldn't suck the flour off a crepe)! As well as cleaning the van the trip has been a fantastic opportunity to finish all of those chores on the van that haven't been possible since Jasper arrived. I've nearly got the trims back on the new roof windows that were ...

... grounds are stunning with its own little beach and wooded forest and the waters of lake vanern weren't too cold, we might even consider a dip later...

Our gorgeous serenity was then only ruined by 2 bus loads of high school students. Damn... ah well kind of nice to have some more people around.

We had a game of mini golf in the afternoon, it seems big over here as there is a course at every ...

Stockholm to Õrebro
Today we woke up to rain and of course my poor body HATES the rain, but I managed to get up and get going. We had hoped to go visit Skansen the outdoor museum in Stockholm but realized that was out, with the rotten weather, and I only thought it was rotten in Denmark! Well more time to spend with family. When leaving the hotel, we approached the tiny 3 person elevator which would of broken every building code the US has ever ...

... Then set out to find my Father's grave. We knew that we were headed it the right direction, but when we arrived, all we saw was a Industrial Park. Deciding to give up the idea we headed back to the shopping mall to return a dress I bought in the wrong size. While on our ride, I again looked at the map and realized that we were indeed in the right area for the cemetery only on the wrong side of the interstate. We turned around and finally found the cemetery, but now ...

... Questions are asked and replied by Nobel himself. `` I asked about the connection of the creation of dynamite which was and still is the primary explosive of so much modern weaponry. The answer was similar to that when you ask about nuclear energy. It can be used for good and evil. Anything powerful will be used eventually in war. We all got pictures taken with the “Alfred Nobel.” He asked what ...

Anthony and Marguerite Miles leave for Holland and US tomorrow. Today is their last day to get ready for the trip and I appreciate them hosting me while I'm in Oslo. They live in a most scenic location. It’s similar to Estes Park, Colorado and it’s just outside Oslo. The homes are terraced on the side of a mountain overlooking a vast valley. Most of the houses are red. There is a yellow one in their midst ...

... Ska bli roligt att se Henke igen! Har inte träffat honom på nästan hela sommaren! Lite klurigt det här med vilka tåg man får och inte får åka med på sin InterRail (tm)-biljett. Just nu är jag trött och rastlös samtidigt... får se om jag kan sova något!

We leave Stokholm to go to Örebro, a quiet city in the middle of Sweden with a nice medieval castle and an enormous and very green camping vhere we stay for 2 nights....Örebro is also the home town of Millencolin, and it's a good reason to come here...!!!
