Stories from my adventures around the world
I had a well-needed good night’s sleep and woke up around 8. Put on the news to see the latest updates about the hurricane heading towards Florida. My plan was to leave relatively early and head down to Miami, which hopefully wouldn’t be hit as hard as Tampa and Orlando. …
The alarm went off at 6:55. A thought, “Why am I doing this to myself” ran through my mind before picking up the phone and booking a lightning lane slot for the Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run. After booking I snoozed for ten minutes before getting up, getting dressed, grabbed my …
Since I’m staying in Treasure Island, west of Tampa, and it was Monday and not the weekend anymore, I realized it would take a couple of hours to get to Orlando. Because of that, I got up early for breakfast and got on the road as quickly as possible. Left …
I set the alarm for eight so I would have time for breakfast and a swim before heading off to the stadium. Not like a Swedish hotel buffet but it was something to fill my stomach with at least. Put on the bathing shorts and went down to the beach. …

The alarm was set at nine but I woke up before that like every other day on this trip. I left the hotel to get some breakfast at Sunny’s which I scouted earlier this week. I decided for some toast, scrambled eggs, bacon, and some apple juice. The first batch …
Today I was so nervous about not waking up or having enough time to eat some breakfast so when I checked the clock and it said 5:45, I just got up. Took a shower to wake up, not much warm water and almost as lousy water pressure as in Thailand. …
Woke up at 6:30 and couldn’t fall back to sleep so I got up and went down to the beach. Stood a while in the water and just enjoyed the moment in the sun and heat. Strolled north along the edge of the water passing by people running, walking, exercising, …
