Extras

As promised, here are a couple of things that didn't quite make it to the original blog.

Neil paying homage


A picnic in Smaland



Clean socks at last in Västervik



The way I remember Neil most evenings



On arriving in Valdemarsvik, Neil noticed how close I had come to a nasty bird shit experience



One of Neil's favourite activities in Stockholm: Using the high-tech can recycling machines.



And finally, something different to eat after all those pizzas and burgers...

Returning to Berlin

Well, unfortunately our little crash on arrival has made any further cycling impossible, since I have some colurful bruising in the worst possible place. So I'll be returning to Berlin tomorrow.

It's getting better though and hey, we had already reached our goal anyway. We've also had 4 nice days in Stockholm. Thanks again to Stefan and Gunilla for their fanstastic hospitality.

Neil flew home this morning and is no doubt already sitting in the pub in Palmers Green.

I might post some "out-takes" as a kind of "Extras" section to the blog, but otherwise that's it from me for now.
