Day 15

This morning at 7:15 AM Kelsey and I went for a run, I did 4.5 miles. Then I quickly showered, got ready, and ate some cereal before Kelsey and Ingrid picked me up at 8:45 AM. We went with Ingrid to Uppsala which is about 30 minutes away and considered "university town." Ingrid had a couple business meetings at 10 and 12, so while she was busy with that Kelsey and I roamed all around Uppsala for 3.5 hrs. We stopped first at a small cafe so Kelsey could get some caffeine to wake up, while I had a refreshing Coke Zero. After that we walked all around, stopping in some shops. We hiked our way up to the Uppsala castle to see it, but it didn't open til 12, and it was about 11:30 and we were hungry for lunch so we took some pictures instead. I tried finding an open door to sneak in, and almost succeeded when I was pulling on one handle and a girl came busting out of that same door... but I got nervous and scurried away :) so we didn't get to go inside. We stopped to eat lunch at a little pizzeria, Rifiti's pizzeria, it was underground. We were trying to decipher the menu, which was in swedish, for about 5 minutes before the guy behind the counter said "I can translate anything for you." We were like oh that'd be great. He told us the pizzas were only big enough for one person so we each got our own pizza.... well we easily could have shared one, but we ended up each only having 3 small slices left over. 


After lunch, we walked around some more and waited for Ingrid to call us and tell us her meetings were over. She called around 1:30 and so we started heading back to the huge church. Once we were back in Enkoping, Kelsey and I biked into downtown to try out the ice cream at one of the cafes we've had our eye on. I got 3 scoops in a cone... one scoop of pistachio, one scoop of after eight (which was mint chocolate chip), and a scoop of chocolate. It was delicious :) So once we biked back from getting that treat, I put on my bathing suit and went and laid out in the backyard. 


At 5, dinner was ready. We had that pasta with the meat sauce and salad. I actually drank a little milk with my dinner. I went and laid out for about an hour more after dinner and then came inside to get ready to go catch My. So at 7:30 we biked to the little field near the school and met Kelsey there. I just got back from that and now doing a load of laundry. 


I don't have many plans for tomorrow. I'm sure I'll do some form of exercise once I wake up, and then if it's pretty maybe lay out again. Some of My's classmates and girls on the team are planning on coming over around 3pm for me to do their makeup for their prom tomorrow night. That should be fun. Anyways, keep reading and comment if you'd like! :)


BTW... HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM! I LOVE YOU :)
