Dear readers and followers,<\/strong><\/p>\n

After spending 9 days in Sweden we are now back in Bucharest again. We had a wonderful time in Sweden with clear skies and lots of sunshine eventhough the temperatures were unusually low. Best of all was the complete lack of snowstorms…. \ud83d\ude42

\"Visiting<\/a>

Visiting \u00c5stol island. Clear sky, sunshine and no snowstorm<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

When we left our home on February 16 we were so busy so we hardly had time to say good bye to friends and family. Now we have compensated for that and visited lots of people. We have enjoyed sauna & beer, sailing on the westcoast and traveled around by train (our car is sold) to visit friends and relatives. We have not cycled at all, not a single meter….<\/p>\n

Our experiences during the first 6 weeks on the road has also made us change some equipment and we have spent a lot of time (and money \ud83d\ude41 ) on shopping new gear.<\/p>\n

We left G\u00f6teborg at 9 in the morning yesterday and arrived in Bucharest 4 in the afternoon Swedish time. The distance that took us 6 weeks to cycle was covered in less than a day with a Lufthansa flight through Frankfurt….. That is food for thought…..

\nNow we are now busy re-packing all our equipment and installing some new things on our bikes. <\/p>\n

We have left all our winter clothes in Sweden and brought along summer clothes instead. The panniers where the clothes are kept look a lot smaller now. I have bought a new handlebar bag from Vaude which has a couple of small compartments and pockets inside, zippers, a plastic map pocket on top and a good carry strap. The Ortlieb I used to have had just one big compartment and a single small pocket inside, no plastic map pocket, no zipper and a lousy strap for carrying. Wej has had such a bag for a long time now and I hope I will like my bag as much as she likes her.

\nWe haven\u2019t cycled anything for 11 days now so today we will make a soft start and only ride some 65 km. We still have Romanian money so our plan is to stay one more night in Romania before entering Bulgaria tomorrow morning. The break has also made us loose a bit of our routines in packing so things seem to move slowly now, but who cares??? We still have plenty of time \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I wrote I would make blog updates during our break with summaries and so on. There was simply no time for it and we are sorry if we kept you waiting. <\/p>\n

This break has been good for the planning and thinking process and we will come back later and tell more about our reflections of the first two months and the plans for the future route.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
