Day 343 27th June
50miles (Alvedsjo to Kalmar) Average speed 11.6 mph Top speed 22 mph
I got up at 7.30 with the children. I had brekkie of prawn paste with bread and ham and cheese, and fed Sebastian his too. I blew some raspberries with Nina and bid farewell to Maria and Kiki. Then I stopped off at Kim and Rolph’s for coffee and toast to say goodbye.
I hit the same road I’ve travelled a few times now. I had lunch in Borgholm of cheese and Rolph’s sausages in wraps. Then I realised I could make the 4.30 ferry if I put my feet down. So I pushed hard to make it and did so with 15 minutes to spare. The supermarket was so busy I gave up and headed for the ferry. I saw a lovely girl travelling by bike but was too shy to chat!!!

Ferry to Kalmar
I found an off licence open for the first time in Sweden and bought a couple of beers over 3% volume, then discovered that the U21 champs game between England and Germany was starting at 6 so went for pizza and then back to O’Leary’s to watch footy. Once again England lost out to the Germans on penalties.
Back at same camping spot for the 3rd time next to lake and chilled for a while before an early night 10.30. That’s unusual lately!!!
Wild camp by same lake as twice before
