Monday Mountain

Never mind the mountain, let’s talk about Max ! The best thing in Sweden ! Can you detect that there has been a change of editor – anyway, Max is a hamburger chain, with a mountain of a triple cheese burger – and an enormous slab of prime Swedish beef ! But what about the mountain, you all cry – after all this is a travel burger – sorry, blogur. Ok, the hill was 296 metres of beef – sorry, forest and rocks. We commenced our ascent – (technical term for climbing) at 1030 am – got to the “toppen” (admire my Swedish) at about 1130. Again, the views were stunning but not quite as spectacular as the previous climb, the downhill was slower but a total trip time of about 2.5 hours. Back on the road again, only to discover Max within the hour ! Additionally, we had free and fast WiFi for two hours – to contact all our avid followers across the planet. Last night we parked overnight (…. guess where?) in a Marina at Borea. Very quiet apart from the heavy rain. We have also noticed that we are now experiencing only 2 or 3 hours of darkness, between 10 pm and about 1am……

This morning, rain and back on the road to meet Max at Lillea……. we will cross into Finland this afternoon, probably….
