Back Home !!



Wow.. it felt like that travel never ever ended !! But it did. And Im now back home in my apartment in Gothenburg. We landed in London airport after a long flight from Singapore. I was feeling so sick. I just want to give an advise, dont fly to New Zealand during your first weeks of pregnancy. Even if they feed you all the time, the food was so irregular and the times got so weird. Yuck !! Anyway. Thats over :) We waited in London for another 6 hours. Then we took the last 2 hours flight to Stockholm. I saw in front of me when I was in the flight how I would walk off, and hundreds of people would stand there, cheering and waiting for me :) screaming WELCOME BAAAAAAAACK!!! But that didnt happen. I got a small jump and cheer from Andrew and mormor was waiting outside the gate with the camera :) Perfect !! :)

It felt weird to be back again. But it doesnt feel like I have been away for 2 years. Mormor told me that I will notice when people start singing Swedish songs I've never heard, or when people talk about happenings I dont know about. We got back to mormor, had a niiiiiiiiccccccccceeeeeeeeeeee home cooked dinner and went to bed :)

Next day was time for the final travel. We took a bus from Sthlm bus terminal. When we walked down to the underground we were met by a man, soo drunk, having a wee on the escalator. I looked at Andrew and thought, great first experience for him.. pause not... :( Busride was terrible. The bus didnt stop anywhere, which I thought it would do so I didnt eat on the whole day. Which makes me sick :(

But we finally reached Gothenburg and we were met by my happy mother and her husband Joakim. They took us home to their place for another woonderful home cooked dinner :) Its luxury with home made food when you have been traveling for so long.

So yesterday we woke up at my mothers place. Played some Wee, which proved to everyone that I am a master in sitting still. Like I didnt know that already. Broke all records HA !! Then we took Andrew for a quick sightseeing up at Ramberget. We went to IKEA to buy some stuff that was missing back home, went to buy food for a month and then... me and Andrew kind off died in the bed. 7 in the evening. Until for me 4 this morning, but Andrew is still sleeping.

It was soooooo GREAT to see everyone again. Mormor, Sven, Mamma, Joakim, Catarina and Patrik.  So now I will spend the next days, looking for work and seeing people. Well,I will probably not going crazy trying to catch up with everyone, but at least my father and uncle for now :)

Soo with this, I end this blog. It was supposed to be a travel blog and now Im home. I will start writing again cuz I do think it is fun. But I will have to give it a rest while I figure things out..!!

THANKS AND GOODBYE !! LOVE YA ALLLL!!!

Singapore

We are in Singapore airport. Andrew says hi :) 11hours on the flight to get here. Andrew saw 4 movies and I saw 3. Strangely I didnt fall a sleep. I allways sleep on the flights. Weird. Oh and I got to see "Lovely Bones" which I have wanted to see for a loong time. It was soo good!! And I also saw a movie about Nelson Mandela. I loved that too. He is a very good man. And they visited his prison cell where I actually have been on Robin Island outside Capetown. Now we will be here for 6 hours waiting for the next 12hour flight. I looove this airport so its ok :)

Some things just make me very confused sometimes. Like today when we were on the flight and the crew came out and gave us burning hot small towels. I didnt get it at all, but then I looked around and saw all people putting them on their face. How did they know what to do with those? And why do they give you face towels anyway? My armspits was a bit smelly so I cleaned them with the towel instead. :)

Byyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllloooooooooooooooooooo

Christchurch!!

We're in Christchurch. Last day in NZ. Last day.. Aah cant believe it. Andrew is going crazy. He has been traveling for 3 years soon and he cant believe he is going back to Europe. I dont know what I think. I am so travel sick. Woke up 2 last night and couldnt sleep.

Its freeeeeeeeeeezing cold here...!!!

So from tomorrow we will be flying for around 30 hours to get to Stockholm.

Good Luck to me :)

Sunny day

Andrew got some weeding work to do today :) We were both supposed to be off but he didnt mind working when pete asked him. I had a nice day off in the sun. I am to be honest a little bit over sunshine and I like cloudy warm days more than sunny warm. But it has been so cold here lately so it was really nice with a sunny day :)

We are taking a goodbye round through town today, saying goodbye to everyone. Sad, but Im happy. I am over living in a small town were I cant do anything without asking people to drive me here and there. Where is the independency? If you dont have a drivers licens, you need buses and trams. But we will miss the friendly people here off course.


Packing

Time to pack the backpack one last time today. We cleaned our "honeymoon room" out and its back to looking like a prison cell. Wow, last time. Cant believe it. Or not last time forever. But for this backpacking tour.

We bought cookies to all our work mates as a goodbye thingy. :) We are not leaving here until wednesday so we will still have time to say goodbye to people tomorrow and maybe even wednesday morning.

Seeeeeeeeeeee YAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Cecilia means Blind.

Did you know that my name, Cecilia, means BLIND!?? I was looking up some names yesterday and I am just wondering what my mother was thinking when she named me "blind". Did she know I was going to be half blind? HMM!!
Andrew means warrior. He thought that was perfect. :P

Today was our last working day. Noo more cleaning toilets. No more making beds. No more no more no more!!! When I came home today I took a loong hot shower, scrubbing those chemicals of from me.

And yea, do you remember that I wrote the other day that I bought a body to the baby. That might have made sence in Swedish but when Andrew read it, it sounded like I had bought the baby an actual body of flesh and blood ;P But I did mean, as Andrew pointed out, that we bought the baby a "baby grow".

Seee yoooooouuuuuuu !!!


Pinch and a punch

A pinch and a punch
for the first of the month

I had never heard that before I came traveling. If you dont know what I am talking about I will tell you. Every first day in a month you say what I just wrote in the top, and you pinch and punch someone. I havent got any today, cuz I just realized now what day it is. I will do it to Andrew when he comes back from training though. Moahaha

Cant believe its May. I have been in NZ for 4 months and almost seen nothing. Mission incomplete. But at least I got to work for some Kiwis and meet fun people. :)

Oh. And yesterday Andrews old workmates invited us for free dinner at restaurant. That was nice. Finally some real food ;) I am starting to get hungry all the time now :P

Have fun pinch punching people today

In a bit yaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
