this evening departure to Kiruna. Wiiii. We are going with 6, 5 nice people. I am so lucky. A train trip of almost 24 hours must be really exhausting. What to do this whole time? Food. Definitely. A lot of food. I will need tonnes of junk food during this trip. To make sure we also have the necessary vitamines and other healthy stuff, we decide to have proper lunch together. I am making spaghetti sauce. Question is how far this qualifies for a proper healthy lunch. Let's assume it does. Luckily Johanna, an Austrian girl, is so kind to bake chocolate muffins. Njammies. We will not starve to death, that's sure. Time is flying while you're eating. What would we do if we wouldn't have to eat? I don't want to know. So as I said, time was flying. Flying too fast in this case. We still have to do something really important. Guess what: preparing food for the train. One hour to go before our train leaves. We still have to go shopping, to prepare our food and to take the tram to the station. Pre-departure stress all over the place. Hurry hurry hurry. Speeding through the shop (the big Willy:s if you want to know) ...
Once home again, a well organised and semi-automatic conveyer band is put into action. I have the challenging task of packing the finished sandwiches. In the meantime, ruccola is flying everywhere. 9 minutes 25 seconds and 24 sandwiches later, we close the door and leave to the tram station (ruccola still all over the place). No Murphy's law this time: the tram is coming the moment we arrive at the Almedal stop. Nice tram. 15 minutes later we arrive in the train station of Göteborg. Jan is already there and takes us to the right platform. I am so lucky to have experts around me the whole time. Some moments later we find our place on the night train. My new home for the coming day. A bit small, but cosy and with a view. I am sure I will enjoy this trip.
