Time to Fly !

3 hrs of sleep and now I on my way to the airport to fly home to California ! It has been a great trip that always include business and pleasure !! We've been staying in some really nice hotels to some bad ones and even slept in the car...but your own bed is always the best !!

5 states later....

Not much sleep and a long day of driving ! But we start to get some experience of this now !! We decided in the last minute to go to Charlotte, NC because this weekend is the NASCAR All Star Race. Tons of stuff is going on for the fans this weekend, like the new NASCAR Hall of Fame, Live music in downtown and of course the race and much more ! After all fun stuff in downtown we met up with an old friend at Lake Norman. It's so peaceful and nice there and we had a great dinner right at the lake. The big NASCAR star Kurt Bush also had a great time at the some restaurant as us before the race day !!!

10 points to Florida !

We've had such a good time here in Florida ! We decided to stay at Clearwater instead of Tampa and Clearwater is well know for there mile long white beaches, clear blue water and 90 F/30 C warm weather ! It's was definitely worth the long drive, the weather God couldn't bet us this time !! 7am tomorrow morning will head back to North Carolina and Friday morning I'll fly back to California !

Happy Swede,

Race day !

My friend Jeff Oleen did a good job today in his NASCAR race ! They were supposed to do a twin 100 laps race. But unfortunately the second race got cancelled due to heavy rain :( I thought they should rise the prize money and still go out there and race !!

Then I came to my friends house but it didn't took long before I hit the bed. Only slept four hours the last two days so I took a nice sleep in this morning !

One of does days ?!

I 've to go to the east coast for awhile now but yesterday I got a phone call from my friend that I want to visit during this trip. We plan all the practical stuff and it ended up with I need to leave this Tuesday....last minute deal, like always. But we've always been -Let's do this !! and we make it work ! And of course in the stress I booked the wrong flight ticket ...uhmm.
I stayed up to 2am to call the Swedish travel agency and they could help me with no extra fee. I went to bed and then they called me back 4am to get more information....it was a long day. But like i said we make it work and everything is correct now ! Washington DC here I come !!!

Have a great weekend
