If felt good being in my own bed, did i tell you how many beds I have slept in so far in this adventure of mine?  24 counting my guest bed in my house, because my house is still rented. It will be interested to see how many beds all together it will be! I did tell you I am a little weird or crazy, or however you would  classify someone who counts beds!

I am now waiting for my 2 bags, one of them MY GOLFCLUBS,they did not show up in Oxnard when i and my other bag arrived. It is fun to see how things just work out. Anders who came to pick me up did not clear his car from 2 matrasses and other stuff so if all my luggage would have arrived with me we could not have fit it!!!!!!

My airline tickets to Alaska is ordered. North Star Golf Club here I come. i leave Wednesday the 3rd and arrive at 12,30 am on the 4th. Will play the 4th and travel home that night!!! That is extreme…. I am doing an extreme thing and I will go all the way to do this and have some fun doing it, I love flying and airports!!!!! that was a little sarcastic, however I am getting use to it, not being sarcastic though,but the flying and the waiting and the airports.

I had a wonderful experience flying home from Sweden. By my side from London to LAX I finally got a person who wanted to talk  and with whom I connected. Thank-You James for a fun and great finish on this part of my journey. I am sure we will talk again and good luck on your journey too.

Will tell you about Alaska soon!

Dear friends. My travel has taken me from Stockholm ,where I did golf some with my brother and did some great shopping, a pair of red clogs.Well you know I love red shoes and I could not help myself. Flow back to Malmo,almost missed my plane stood in line for an SAS plane and I was flying with Sterlings. It helps looking at the tickets!!! I am a very relaxed traveller now…..

Visited with mom a couple of days ,practiced golf in very hot weather and swam in the Oresund after my morning jogs,wonderful! Got invited to Boras by old friends from college,also golfers nowadays. We had a crayfish-party with snaps and singing and a sightseeing in the city of Boras,they showed me the famous statue of Pinocchio,cool. Next day golf in sun and rain. Thank-You Ulla and Hans for a wonderful visit and your generosity.

In Gothenburg  a slumber party with 4 of my collage girlfriends. Who said that is just for kids. Great food,lots of laughter and many walks in memory lanes in-between playing with Britas new puppy. Thank-You Brita ,I had a ball.

The weekend was spend at Gullholmen a little island in the county Bohuslans archipelago. Pictures will be posted when I can figure out how!!. That island is breathtaking and I can just say WOW.

More to come,I am checking for tickets to Alaska in the beginning of September.

Hugs
