Hello from Stockholm!

We're back in Sweden, in a city this time. Started out the first night in style, stayed out until 4 am at this Czech bar with karaoke and dancing. Alison and I sang Holiday, and would've made Madonna's ears bleed with our drunken version. It doesn't get dark at night, EVER. We were up all night to prove it. Met up with some fun locals here, and some travelers at the hostel we're staying at. Can't get a hold of any hashers here. They are eluding us. Perhaps Per from CH3 put out a global warning on us already....Went on ANOTHER canal tour (Kris, can you believe it???) since Alison really wanted to check it out. I dozed off for some of it, with my lack of sleep the night before, and the gentle rolling boat down the canals, it was very comfy.

Since we can't find out which metro station the underground run starts tonight (it isn't published on their web site!) we're going to check out an ice bar instead. The whole thing is made of ice. It just opened a couple of weeks ago. It will be an earlier night ,however, I hope.

Midsummer's Eve festivals are happening this weekend. They have some kick a** parties planned on the islands here. It sounds like a Swedish version of the burning man in Nevada. We're going, of course, Friday night. I don't think I will be streaking around the
bonfire this time, Muffalotta. haha

Oh, forgot to tell you, in Norway, we hiked a fiord called Preskelolen to the top of Pulpit's Rock. It was narly. I got some incredible photos. Also went to Lillehammer, and checked out the 1994 Winter Olympic site. There were ski jumpers on the ski jump. It was covered with a watered down astroturf and they had no problem getting down. Soooo cool! Many photos, thanks to Alison. We promise to download them as soon as we come across another laptop. The other photos are up now. www.crazyhappenings.com. Well, all except the Munich ones.....opps.

Ok, gotta run now. A nap is most necessary.
