Didn’t sleep too well even though I had the whole tent to myself. I think it has to do with either or both of these two things
1. strong coffee at 4:30 pm
2. No bandanna to cover my eyes from the light
So I got up early and it was dry. Knowing it would rain much later on today. I had a walk around town. There isn’t that much to see, so I returned soon after. This would be my only walk of today because I had a rest day.
Donald got up at the time I returned from my walk to enjoy his breakfast. I chose the best table with the understanding that that would be my spot for the whole day. Which was true. I resupplied early so I could take it off my to-do list. Not the best choice because they restocked the shop in the afternoon. I also created postcards for the little ones (nieces and nephew). After that, it was almost time for Don’s bus. I was planning to walk with him, but considering the rain, I didn’t. Said goodbye to a great hiking partner. Luckily I have a day to get used to this fact. Plus it’s not the first time.
Honestly, the rest of the day was really relaxing. Chatting with the Dutchies, updating my blog, and drinking tea/coffee (not too much coffee). I also saw the German woman again with the tied together backpack. She had a good time and made it out safely!
Even though I didn’t do much. The day flew past and soon it was time for dinner. I joined at a random table with three lovely gentlemen. All different nationalities, so I couldn’t practice my Swedish. The food (and one glad of wine) were delicious, or ‘mums’ as a You say in Swedish. I finished with a very dense chocolate cake.
Some final phone time and again ready for bed
