I can’t see the road…

Why do I always wake up early when I could sleep? 5:30 am and I am well rested. Terrible. No breakfast before 7 am. First person down t the reception. Paying my room. The lady there was a little bit astonished you stay until the 17th…”Yes, but I like to pay at once. Norwegian works well….

The holidays have started

Finally two weeks of holidays. Spending 9 days in Germany and 6 days in Stockholm. Starting from the airport at 10 am has some advantages. You can “sleep in” – at least more than taking the 7 am flight and take the cheaper bus (1/10th of the taxi price). Hoping for some better weather home…
