Day 164: or The Day I Left Sweden After a Lovely Weekend

Hans and Ulla had to work today, so I got up to say goodbye before they left. I had a great time in Stockholm and would love to come back for a longer visit. I will of course try to keep my visits to the warm months, because I'm not sure I could handle the cold. But Sweden in the summer is quite a lovely place.

Jakob showed me to the train, which was much appreciated. I believe I could have made it there on my own, but it was nice to have an escort just in case. There is a 20 minutes fast train from downtown Stockholm to the airport that was super convenient, and had wifi. I'm always complaining about why trains don't have internet. I feel like in this day and age, they've figured out much harder things. And voila, a train with internet. Which only proves to me that it's possible but not high enough on people's lists. I made my flight with plenty of time, and after a quick stop in Munich, I was back in France. The train home was long but easy. When I arrived at home however, it was pouring and I had a 30 minute walk ahead of me. A woman was nice enough to give me a ride into town, so my walk was cut to 10 minutes, but 10 minutes in pouring rain gets you as soaked as you're going to get. Welcome home to me.
