We’re coming home…

Updated on January 1, 2025October 21, 2024

Third and final morning in London. I bought breakfast from the same lovely place as the previous days and spoke for a couple of minutes with, what I assume were, the owners. We packed our stuff and then left the apartment at 10 to get to The Formula 1 Exhibition, …

Gameday @ Wembley Stadium

Updated on January 4, 2025October 21, 2024

I slept quite well during the night and woke up around eight. We had planned a slow morning so I got up, took a shower, and then went to the same cafe as yesterday to buy some breakfast. We left the apartment at about 11 to get some lunch from …

Escaping the Science museum

Updated on January 5, 2025October 19, 2024

During the night I found the one bad thing with this apartment. Its single glass windows, which don’t really keep the noise from the street outside. I managed to sleep pretty well anyway through the night but at 7:30 in the morning, I couldn’t go back to sleep anymore. I …

Off to a rocky start

October 18, 2024October 18, 2024

As I usually do when I’m about to travel I woke up early, excited for this weekend trip with Håkan and Martin. I had chosen to take the car because of the late arrival on Monday evening and the cab nowadays costs one-way the same as the indoor parking. I …

First time in Övik

January 13, 2024January 13, 2024

I have an ambition to visit all arenas in the SHL, preferably when my Leksands IF is playing there. And even though Leksand and MoDo Hockey have played in the same series a couple of times I have never been to Hägglunds Arena (former Fjällräven Center). So when the schedule …

Thursday When tickets for the home games of Leksands IF in August 2023, I looked for a “hockey weekend”, with two home games for the men’s team and one or two home games for the women’s team. I found one after New Year’s and I booked the tickets. I also …

Fall Out Boy in Munich

October 22, 2023October 22, 2023

During the spring of 2023, my brother’s wife, Linda Marie asked me if I would be interested in going to a concert with her. It was one of her (or perhaps THE) favorite bands, Fall Out Boy who were playing in Munich in October. Concerts are fun and so is …
