SWEDISH FACT-OF-THE-DAY:
Sven Tumba is Sweden's most legendary ice hockey player.
Packing Day
If you think this looks chaotic, you must remember that I had already made two trips to the local Salvation Army dropoff point with two full suitcases of donations!
We head out tomorrow morning for Copenhagen and adventure. From Denmark, we fly together to London. While Laurie continues on to Los Angeles after a short layover, I will spend the night in the U.K.'s capital before flying on to Biarritz, France on Thursday.
On Friday, God willing, I start my Camino.
Again?
Our local newspaper, NorreSkåne, published an article today about our camp yesterday with the Tekniska Skolan, we were on the FRONT PAGE!
It must be a very slow news day.
Even more on the inside pages
You want to know why I'm opting for the solitude of the Camino de Santiago? In a word . . . PAPARAZZI! When will they stop hounding me?
Just kidding of course, anything we can do to spread the word about the Hurricanes in particular and American football in general is a good thing. I really appreciate everything that Tomas Gustavsson and Johan Hammarqvist at NorraSkåne have done this season to help our team grow.

Fika included but of course!

And so, the sun sets on another season of EuroBall
Meanwhile back to Örebro at Mjällby
I just found this picture of Ryan and I in our seats at The Great Wall for this Allsvenskan game a week ago on Lena Sandberg's blog. Do we look intense or what?
With my trusty Mac laptop computer staying in Icelandia while I trek through northern Spain for the next month or so, I do not know how often I will be able to get to an internet café to continue the blog.
I doubt that I will get any Camino pictures up until I return to Sweden but I will be describing the joys of walking 496.2 miles to you as often as is possible.
BUEN CAMINO!

Stay safe on the trail!
Tack så mycket!
Good luck. Enjoy.
I was kicking myself after leaving for not taking a picture of you and Laurie on your last night in Hässleholm (together, at least). Have fun, be safe, and thanks for all of your help.
It has been OUR pleasure having you here in Hässleholm. Enjoy the rest of your European adventure!
Good luck! And give my love to Laurie!!

Is it also you on the article below in that swedish newspaper, helping the cops checking speed-limits ?
At least it looks like.
I CAN NOT ACCESS MY E MAIL IN SPAIN BUT I AM ALIVE AND WELL IN RONCESVALLES AFTER AN 8 HOUR 55 MINUTE CROSSING OF THE PYRENEES MOUNTAINS. I LISTENED TO MY BODY.
IT KEPT SAYING THAT I WAS STUPID.
I AM TIRED.
