My trip to Ikast part 2
so on my train from Copenhagen to Skanderborg where I was going to change trains again. I sat beside a huge man! seriouslly he was huge, in more then the tall way!
the ride was okay though.. iPod is a great invetion.. ;)
and then it happened again.. someone in the staff fell and got so hurt they had to take her/him in an ambulanze. so we had to wait at one of the stations.. and well that ment I missed my train.. Lucky for me there was another one going shortly after so I only had to wait for like 15 mins or so.. :)
and then finally my last train for the day.. off to ikast.. there I sat opposite of a young mom and her son and he was only about a year old.. and a real charmer I must say.. Soooo Cute!
anyway I arrived in Ikast 30 mins later then expected.. So I walked to the otherside of the station and then I started my hunt for a taxi. I walked up a street and there was apud.. with alot of drunk danish dudes.. I was to tired to handle that.. alittle bit father up was a kiosk kinda store.. i walked in and there was a cute little old woman working there..
I walked in and there was a man bying cigarettes infront of me.. when he had bought his stuff and walked out the woman turned to me and smiled.. In my tired state I mange to mix Swedish/danish/English into one sentence, asking where I could find a taxi.
the woman seemed to get it though because she smiled picked up teh phone and asked if she should call for one to come there.. I just nodded.. so she called and told me there would come one right away.. :)
I smiled and said thank you so much and walked outside and waited..
5 mins later a taxi showed up.. an older man why driving.. I asked if he new where the B&B was he said yes and we took off.. He droped me off and I paid him and walked up tothe house and rang the door bell.

a girl answered the door.. I asked if I was at the B&B and she said yes and that she would get her dad.. I herd her telling her dad in Danish that.. People are comeing and you just sleep.. :P
he showed me inside and said i could pay the next day and then he went back inside to his place.. I took a look around chosed a bed and started to cook my pasta.. I was soooo hungry.. :p
I brought out my Laptop and chatted with my danish friend Julia. I would meet her the next day.. :)
so sometime between 8 -8:30 I ate dinner that night
at about 9.30 I went to bed.. exhausted!

My trip to Ikast part 1
So Friday morning i got up at 6am.. did my usuall routine.. take Chomper out, eat breakfast.. then I packed the last of my stuff. at 7.15 we got out to the car ( me and my mom, I catched a life with her) ofcourse I put on the wrong jacket and had to run inside and change. :P
on hour way into town.. the car started to vibrate like crazy.. and My mom started to swear and my first thought was great! lovely day.. I bet I will miss my train..
after a while the car was back to normal again.. thank god and I made it to the trainstation and mom headed of to work.
first train arrived and it took of att 8.09am or something like that. So I got a seat and a Woman sat down opposite of me.. and on the otherside of the train there was a man.. and ofcourse one of those annoying ones.. that talks way too much.. :D I put my iPod on.. and drifted away in my thoughts..
a few hours later and my next stop was in Norrköping.. there I would change trains to the one that would take me to Copenhagen. I jumped off the train and headed towards the station so i could chech from witch track my next train would go.. luckely it was the same track I was on so i just went over to where it would stop.. then they announce that the train is late.. Great!
15mins later the train arrives.. I get on and find my seat and there is two cute little girls with their mom and grandpa sitting there.. one of them was named Emma and she was 4 and the little one was named Astrid and was two.. Emma liked to aske questions.. like.. where are you going? why do you have such a big bag? and so on.. I answered her questions with a smile and she told me she was going to Lund to se her grandma.. :)
after every station the announced we would be stopping at Emma nicely asked her grandpa which country it was.. :P
the little girls ate raisins.. well most of them ended up on the floor.. :P
anyway.. trip went on fine.. i manage to catch some sleep.. and soon we were in Malmö and there we had a short stop before going over the bridge to Denmark and my stop in Copenhagen..
ofcourse after passing Kastrup ( airport in copenhagen) our train stopped.. the speaker announced that there was a train ahead of us with technical problems and that they hoped we didn't have to stand still for too long..
once again I though, great! Now I will probablly miss my train.. and I would have.. if I didn't change my mind while booking my tickets that I would have a longer stop in Copenhagen..
anyway we stood still for a while and I got bored so I took alittle walk on the train and found a friend..
when i got back to my seat we started rooling again and soon we were on our way again..
we arrived at copenhagen mainstation.. and I went up to the station.. checked out when My next train would go and from wich track.. then i went and got some more Danish money and went down to the track and waited for my train.

oh yeah! the countdown is getting crazy close.. it means I leave on Friday! FRIDAY!
I thought I would get a free afternoon today. But I have to take another shift at work so that meams that I have to fix everything on thursday afternoon and night.. which makes me feel a little stressed that I will fogett something.. But it also feels good that I will have work on thurday. last time I was going.. I had the whole Saturday and Sunday to just wait and wait and wait for it to be monday so I could go.. :P
I had somemixed feelings thisweekend.. especially yesterday. I was feeling alittle scared actually.. :P But I had a good conversation last night and that got me back on track to beeing excited about the trip..
and Ulla beeing the sweetheart that she is has promised to make sure I get to the trainstation sunday morning. so that means I know i will come home again.. :P
So it's only friday night I have to figure out how to get from the trainstation to the B&B but i will work that out when I get to Ikast. that is kinda theexiting part too, to not know how things will work out.. I like it!
I'm still thinking out my shopping list for thursday in my head.. what I need to bring.
so far the list containes of only bad stuff.. :P oh yeah. some food and shampo too.. :P
But I mean it is a trip, It's my vacation sorta, so I guess I can live alittle unhealty during one weekend right? that won't kill me..
looks like the weather won't be so awesome during the weekend either.. But that doesn't really mather.. I hope it won't rain on sathurday though.. I had planned to walk from the B&B into town then.. so rain wouldn't be so cool..
I guess I will have to pack my rainclothes too, just in case..
30 mins untill I have to be back at work.. better make the most of it..

seems like I have alot to do next weekend then.. damn.. :P
hmm.. anything I have forgotten? please leave me a message then.. ;)
just a few thoughts
I think I'm more excited about meeting my friends then actually seing the game.. which says alot.. :P
well it's not any ordinary people I'm meeting anyway, they are special, some more then others, but I know we will have a good time..
I have also made a bet with a friend from home, that I will get the crazy friends to play a game with me in the arena.. Haha I will see if I get the courage to ask them to play with me, if I even remember that then.. but I bet it would be really funny.. So we will see, maybe I will get them to do something people will remember for a long time..:P
Sadly the Swedish girl that playes in Viborg has a knee injury so she won't play the game I believe, sadly.. But I hope she will be there anyway..
what more.. I hope Gro's ribs will be healed so she can play that game.. well I hope all the FCM players will be fit for fight..
it is 16 days left untill I will jump on that train.. 17 days untill I will see a great friend again..
I'm sure that even this trip will be something I will never forget..

Nightmares
2 nights in a row i have had nightmares about the game.. Silly nightmares.. the first one I dreamt about totally forgetting about the game and like 10 mins before the game started. I started running towards the arena.. :P
2 one I dreamt that my family actually was with me there.. we were in some stupid hall, not even a handball hall and my mom was a totall bitch the whole time.. :D
Wierd.. and yeah FCM was not even playing against Viborg.. the played against TTH.. :P

Train tickets!
Now they are bought. Now there is no way back.. Denmark here I come!
can't make up my mind
Right now I can't make up my mind, if I should take the train that goes like less then 30 mins after I arrive in Copenhagen to Ikast and Arrive in ikast at 6:01pm or the one that goes like an Hour after I arrive in Copenhagen and arrive in Ikast at 6:31pm..
the later train goes faster..
hmm.. and it would be great to have some time in Copenhagen to maybe get some lunch..
yeah I will sleep on it and book tickets tomorrow I guess..
Ulla will fix my match ticket for the game, great.. so now I just have to book traintickets and then that is pretty much it.. then i just have to wait for the final days to arrive so I can buy food for the trip and pack bags and then finally go!
WOOHOO!

getting excited.. I'm alittle nervous about the trains though.. alot of trains have been cacled in sweden because of bad weather.. I don't want anything to screw up this time..
I will book my tickets later today or tomorrow though.. I wanna make sure I get a good spot on the x2000. the first train is an old one there it goes by the rule.. see a seat, grab it before someone else does.. :P
Seems like there will be a fun bunch getting together for the gam.. I really look forward to it.. :)
another thing to think about is food.. The hostel that I'm gonna stay in wanted me to bring my own breakfast.. so yeah.. another thing to pack.. and then i need something easy for dinner friday night/ Lunch saturday..
feels like my bag won't be so easy as I thought.. :P Thank god I have mucels.. :P
anyway.. time flies by.. It will be nice to get a few days away. and even more nice to see some great friends again.. even if it is just for 1 day..
Maybe this should be my outfit for the GF World Cup this year.. or maybe not.. :P
I wore this to the crazy olympics at work.. the Kids loved it!
