    I'm from east Africa.. I visited Sweden for 3 months before the pendemic and found them really down to earth, good hearted, kinda shy and very helpful people.. even the police I interacted with during a traffic stop when realised I was a visitor were so helpful explaining to me how to be better than giving me a ticket...I soo admire these people and their culture. It's impossible to convince me otherwise...
    Bless them!

    It IS odd how your presence is so real and in the moment that i automatically reached out to brush your wasp away. I am 70 so i can remember the first appearance of television... radio with pictures right in our living room. My mother was born in 1916 and we talked now and then about making the change from horse to tractor on the farm... and from the winter horse drawn sleigh to riding in the first car. Technology now has put us at each others virtual fingertips. Riding as you do with several cameras... the feeling is very close to being there. And how you can juggle all of this and puzzle it together for us and make it look like it happens quite casually by itself. Like people say about the bees... busybusybusy, Itchy Boots.

    While stationed in Germany in the mid 70’s, as a couple in our mid 20’s, we took leave, vacation, through Denmark and Sweden, by car. We camped during our travels and found a nice campground in Stockholm. It was sunny when we arrived, but the next morning it rained and rained for the next 3 days while we were there. The day we had to leave, it was sunny. Go figure. We toured Stockholm the best we could considering all the rain, but wished we could of done more, without the rain. Stockholm is definitely a beautiful city. Funny story. Being a US Army Soldier and American, traveling has some interesting adventures. After arriving in Sweden, we found a campground along the coast and set up camp. The wife and I decided to eat at the cafe in the campground, as opposed to trying to find a place outside the campground. When our waiter arrived at our table, we asked him if he had an English menu, which he said no. We asked him if he had a German menu, again he said no. We looked at the Swedish menu and with a translation book, we tried to order something. When our meal arrived, what we ordered were cold pancakes. We started to eat, when the owner of the cafe came by and stopped us from eating. Everybody in the cafe had a big laugh on us Americans, then the owner brought us an English menu. We then ordered, ate and when we went to pay the bill, the owner said, since we took their joke on us so well, the meal was free. Since something like this had happened to us before, we just shrugged it off and went with the flow. Everyone in the cafe came by our table and told us they were glad we stopped by and hoped we have a good time while visiting their country. Traveling can definitely be an adventure. Just don’t let anything get under your skin.

      Wasps like to pick dead insects off the front of your bike but only if they are freshly killed. They search all over the front of cars and bikes and sometimes will check out screens, jackets and helmets. They are not aggressive when they are feeding and easily deterred with a gentle tap, they become more aggressive later in the season when there are less insects and they have to forage for fruit, that is when their nests have started to collapse and they no longer have a colony.

      Riddarholmen (Knight islet) is one of the oldest parts of Stockholm, but for many years now the small island has been inhabited mostly by different courts and government agencies, hence the emptyness of the square.

    It feels strange to see you riding on some of the same streets I rode on my bike on my way to work before my accident. I also took my bike to Gotland a few times to get my fill of adrenalin, doing fast laps round Gotlan Ring, a race track on northern Gotland.

It wasn't even just at my particular diner, it seemed to be at all the diners (well, not that I've eaten at them all, as there are so many in NYC -- LOL)...

Our police is great, sadly our politians are too airheaded and retarded to give the police what they actually need to properly do their jobs.

    Many years ago in the earrly 1960s I was with a group on business from England in Mariestad in central Sweden. We visited a restaurant for lunch one day but had some language problems reading the menu. One of the items listed was Svartz Soppa. Unfortunately none of the staff were able to speak English and to explain to us what were the ingredients. Not to be outdone one of the waitresses went to a restaurant next door to find somebody who could speak English. She returned with a waiter who had a good command of English and proudly announceed that the soup was made from goose blood. As I recall we decided to give ita pass. It seems this is a traditional Swedish dish eaten on a specific day in Noveber. I think. Either way we enjoyed our stay in Sweden and sevearl years later did a tour of the country. The people are delightful and friendly. Just like Noraly found them to be. Keep on riding Noraly and I will keep following you and your adventures. Greetings from Red Deer, Alberta.

It's a small but beautiful place, I remember we were going to the lake regularly. One of the best times of my childhood were spent there, so when we saw you're heading to Sweden I was a bit excited 🙃 I wonder if you could possibly go there also.

    We also have the pea soup + pancake tradition in Finland, but I don't know anybody who eats it every Thursday anymore (apart from the army). Nowadays it's still common to eat it every year during a winter celebration called Laskiainen (associated with Shrove Tuesday
    ). Also worth noting that the pancakes are not the same as in the Netherlands or the USA, but this one is made in the oven. It's a very comforting food combination to eat especially in the winter months!

I was tired from all the driving and parked somewhere that wasn't allowed but i had to look at my maps again. A policecar and even an ambulance stopped near me and they got out. I thought i was in trouble but the policeman said, ' are ya lost mate' and i told him i couldn't find my hotel. He put his hand on my shoulder ,turned me around and said, if you look and that building with the red flags, there it is. The woman at the ambulance lived in Holland for a couple of years and just chatted with me in dutch, because she saw that i was shyting my pants for a brief moment because i thought i would get a ticket for bad parking. Lovely people. Another surprise occurred to me when a lady from that hotel started talking to me in South african language to me and she was curious if a dutchman could understand South african and vice versa.

I was at the traffic lights waiting to turn right over Vauxhall Bridge and a small bike with large ape hanger handlebars pulled up next to me with a motorcycle policeman in full gear riding it, most unusual... I looked down to see what type of bike it was and as I scanned up noticing that he was really in full motorcycle outfit, I got to eye level and he was staring quite agressively straight into my eyes and said, in a gruff voice.. "Don't laugh !!".. I nearly fell off my bike laughing.

    The tradition with peasoup is actually from the 1700.... Sweden had a huge harvest of peas (mainly because the didn't grow anything else) And they needed to get rid of the surplus. So the King ordered everybody to eat more peasoup and of course mainly the army. This is why it is a tradition in Sweden and Finland , which used to be part of Sweden at that time. For the pancakes I'm not so sure. Basically it is to complement the meal since a soup is not that much food and pancakes is easy to make and tastes yummy...

We eat pea soup (or erwtensoep in Dutch) - also known colloquially as “snert” - and pancakes that are (as far as I’ve seen) similar to the Swedish ones. We put either chocolate paste, jam, cheese, bacon or even apple(!) on.

    Hearing you trying to pronounce Swedish words like Dutch is funny :). Amazing that you tried out ärtsoppa med pannkakor! Peasoup thursdays are also a big tradition here in Finland, in both the military and also in restaurants and school restaurants. In Finland the pancake is different, its a big slice from a traditional Finnish oven pancake. So in Finland-Swedish it would be just one pancake: ärtsoppa med pannkaka.

    I wish that more police just came up and said hi or help with something minor.
    If they only show up when there's something possibly dangerous, they'll be much more on edge (bad work environment) - People around police on edge will also get on edge, and people who are already on edge might get tipped over the edge of reasonable thinking.
    I think if the police has nothing in particular to do, they should just hang out and relax with the general public, get to know people. It's good on many fronts I think.
