I slept at Tönnebro till 02:15, did some yoga, and started driving again at 02:47.
I stopped again at the 24 hour gas station just south of Sundsvall at 04:18, filled the tank, used the loo, bought a berry juice, naped for 20 minutes, and got back on the road.
Keldor woke and called me at 05:38 as he drove to work, keeping me company till 06:30, when he arrived at work, and I reached the rest area by the hotel at the Högakustenbrön, where I slept for just over an hour.
Then I drove on to Skuleberget, napped for an hour, and then took my computer to the cafe for my 10:00 meeting, after which I took a walk a very short distance up the hill, before deciding it was nap time, so I returned to the car for another 40 minutes sleep.
I got back on the road at 12:20, stopped at the large grocery store in Örnsköldsvik to use the loo, and buy some fresh veg—after so much junk on the roadtrip, I will need some.
The next stop was the has station in Umeå, where I bought a black current and vanilla ice cream popsicle that was so good I went back in and bought a second.
Keldor called me just as I bought the first, and when I told him what I was eating he commented that it had been made for me. It really was.
I finally reached home at 16:50, unloaded only food, computer bag, and my pillows, and curled up with a book for a bit. The event stuff can wait for tomorrow.
Keldor came home from work a bit later, with his new purchace, a second hand EmcoStar all in one compact shop tool, like the one in this blog. He bought it from a retired guy who doesn’t use it any more, who had inherited it from his dad.
He paid for it yesterday and picked it up today, and when there the guy asked him, would you also like a knife sharpening machine? Yes, yes he would.
By 18:00 Keldor was feeling like a nap, and I was super tired, so we went to lay down for a bit, and woke more than two hours later. He got up and had dinner, I started adding recent photos to my blogs and replying to messages, and before I knew it, it was after midnight. oops. Road trips do weird things to one’s sleep schedule.
