So the flight was relatively quick but we nearly had to divert to a different airport due to adverse weather conditions. As it was we did manage to land but we had hours to wait until we could get a bus to Norrköping so we killed time by playing musicals pictionary.
Transfer
The bus from the airport to the city took about an hour and a half but it went quite quick because we were playing random games. It was a bit of a worry that our bus had a huge crack down the windscreen though. However, when we got there Laura left her bag on the bus so we had to run after it. Thankfully someone on the bus saw us and got the driver to stop
In the airport
.Hostel
So Laura's friend met us at the bus stop and showed us where our hostel was right above the train station but we couldn't get in because there was a code on the door and we had no coins for a phone. Some Swedish people rang for us though so eventually we go in, we then forgot the code and had to ring again when we tried to get in later. So we decided to go and find the venue but couldn't get out because the train station was shut! It was quite weird being locked inside a train station. Anyway some guys in the hostel told us how to get out so finally we were off to the venue.
Stage Door
The venue, the Louis de Geer, was only about a 10 minute walk away so we headed to the stage door to meet Laura's friends. We saw Kerry Ellis briefly but Mazz was on the phone. Laura's friends invited us out but because of strict drinking laws we couldn't go. So back to the hostel it was to battle with the shower that had no door or no light!
