🇸🇪 Day 6 – April weather

Impressions

The evening and night at the campground didn’t go as expected. At least I was able to do some laundry and charge my batteries. However, about 100 meters away from my tent, there was a much-hyped country party with music and square dancing. Consequently, all the Swedes—dressed as cowboys—partied well into the night not far from my tent.

Still, I felt pretty well-rested this morning; I was able to dry everything quickly without any problems and then set off on a short day’s ride with surprisingly little rain. My tent withstood the sometimes heavy rain without any trouble.

I’ve decided to believe the weather forecast, which says it’s supposed to rain up to 30 l/m² tomorrow. So I’ll be spending the next two nights at a hostel in Mellbystrand, 60 km away, and taking a day to rest.

This gives me a little time to reflect, plan the rest of the trip, and fill my belly.

By the way, as of today, I’ve successfully completed the first quarter of my journey. If I keep up this pace (and take one rest day per week), then, as expected, the entire trip will take me about 4 weeks.
