Yesterday turned out to be a much nicer day than the day before, weather wise.
While Greg slept in, I did a 30 minute workout on the elliptical and then showered. Once I woke him up, we watched some TV, and then I took him for a bike ride around town.
We biked to the grocery store so I could show him all the different Marabou chocolate bars and swedish foods. Then we biked around and I showed him the marina, the cinema, the Church up on the hill, the yummy cafe that I went to twice before for their good salads, the softball field, Ingrid's house, and then we biked back.
We ate some lunch once we got back and watched some more TV and packed up his suitcase. At 5:30 pm, we biked down to the softball field so I could catch Ingrid for 15 minutes before practice. Team practice was at 6, and we had the girls scrimmage each other for 7 full innings. Kelsey was the all time pitcher, I caught for both teams, and Greg was the all time right fielder. We had enough girls to have 2 teams fill in the other positions. It was very good practice for them to play different positions in a game-like situation.
Afterwards, we had about 20 minutes left of practice, so we played knockout with hitting. Kelsey front-tossed to them and I played shortstop so I could determine if it was a hit or not.
Once practice was finished, a few of the girls wanted to stay longer and get extra hitting, so Kelsey pitched to them while I helped correct their swings. We finally left the field a little after 8:30 pm and biked back to the house, where dinner was waiting for us.
We had spaghetti noodles with the sauce I like... called shet fash sauce?? I know that's not how it is spelled but that's what it sounds like :) After dinner, I showered and then we headed to sleep a little while after that.
This morning I had to drive Micke to work so that I could have the car and the GPS to take Greg to the airport. We left a little after 7 am, got lost for a few minutes, and I had to call Karin bc I didn't understand what the swedish GPS was asking me to do.
Once we got that settled, we were on our way. We got to the airport a little before 8:30, and I had to park on the curb and tell Greg bye outside :( It was sad watching him walk away. Our 9 days together flew by, but I know that it's that much closer to when I'm able to go home and see everyone!
On the way back from the airport I was stuck in dead still traffic for 15 minutes before we started moving... I think from a bad accident. On the way home, I stopped by the plumbing business to pick up Karin and Ludde (the dog) to take them back to the house so Karin and Micke would have the car to get back home.
I went back to sleep for about an hour and a half, and then after watching TV for awhile, Kelsey came over and we watched a movie.
After the movie ended, we biked back to Ingrid's so I could clean the inside of her husband's car for some extra cash. That took about an hour and a half. Afterwards, I biked back, helped cut the bread for dinner, and then we ate crawfish soup with bread and butter and cheese for dinner. It was very tasty.
After dinner, we walked to the soccer fields to watch Tove's soccer game. My and I left early to go back to the house, and I worked out on the elliptical for 40 minutes and then showered.
I was finally able to skype with Mom and Dad tonight, and now I am heading to sleep. I'm waking up somewhat early to run, and then I'm taking the train to Stockholm with My and Tove for a day of shopping.
