Some pictures from yesterday

Vi borjade var sondag med att springa en runda i parken har utanfor. Sen tog vi oss en lang promenad fran varat hotell pa Kungsholmen till Odenplan och satte oss pa ett litet gulligt bageri och at frukost. Vi fortsatte var promenad langs Birger Jarls Gatan, forbi Stureplan och till Dramaten. Vi gick snabbt forbi Kungstradgarden men Jim blev super allergisk, sa vi fortsatte direkt till Operan och Riksdagshuset. Vi gick upp pa slottet, kollade kyrkor, promenerade i Gamla Stan, fikade och fortsatte in pa Sodermalm hela vagen bort till Skrapan. Sen vande vi och gick tillbaka in till centrum och sedan Kungsholmen. 
Mycket promenerande i harligt soligt vader. Man hinner ju med ganska mycket pa en hel dag. 

We began our sunday with going for a run in the park here outside. Then we took a long walk from the hotel on Kungsholmen to Odenplan and sat down at a small cute bakery and ate breakfast. We continued the walk along Birger Jarls Gatan, past Stureplan and to the Royal Dramatic Theatre. We walked quickly past Kungstradgarden but Jim was super allergic, so we continued directly to the Opera House and Parliament House. We went up on the castle, looked at churches, walked into the old town, had fika and went out on Sodermalm all the way over to the Skrapan. Then we got turned back to the city center and then Kungsholmen.
A lot of walking in lovely sunny weather. You get to do pretty much stuff in one day.

Vi har haft en forsta bra dag har i Stockholm. Vadret ar helt fantastiskt! Vi tog en promenad langs Riddarfjarden och in mot centrum. Vi at en god middag pa en Irlandsk pub (jag bestallde bearnaisesas!!) och sedan fick jag antligen kopa godis. Min favorit butik finns tyvarr inte kvar, men jag fick lite lakrits iaf. Jag har ju hallit mig borta fran allt sott i fyra veckor infor min resa till Sverige, sa nu passar jag verkligen pa och gottar mig:)
Vi promenerade sedan vidare till uteserveringen de har vid Dansens hus och satt dar en stund tills vi gick tillbaka till hotellet.
Jag ar sjukt trott nu, men jag kan lixom inte ga och lagga mig allt for tidigt, sa nu sitter vi i hotellbaren och kollar pa baseball via Jim’s telefon. Mycket trevligt. 

We’ve had a very nice first day here in Stockholm. The weather is incredible! We went for a walk along Riddarfjarden and in towards city center. We ate a good dinner at an Irish pub ( ordered bearnaise sauce!!) and then I finally got to buy candy. My favorite shop has closed down, but I got some licorice at least. I have been staying away from everything sweet for four weeks prior to my trip to Sweden, so now I’m really gonna enjoy it:)
Then we walked to an outdoor seating by Dansens Hus (Dance house = dance stage) and sat there for a while until we walked back to the hotel. 
I’m really tired now, but I can’t just go to sleep too early, so now we are sitting in the hotel bar watching baseball on Jim’s phone. Very nice.

At the hotel in Stockholm. We started the trip with two hour delay, but it didn’t really matter when we realized that we were going in business class. Nice to lie down and I actually managed to sleep a lot on the trip which helps now when we are going out in Stockholm for tourism:)

Det ar svart att veta vad man ska packa for tre veckor. Nu har ju Sverige fint vader ocksa, men det ar ju inte sakert att det stannar sa, vilket gor det annu svarare att packa:) Men vi ar typ klara nu med vad som ska med. Kommer bli tva halvfulla vaskor dit och fulla vaskor hem, haha. 
Nu ar jag valdigt avkopplad och redo for semester. Jim har halvdag imorgon sa om vi behover andra nagot i vaskorna sa gor vi det da. 

It’s hard to know what you should pack for three weeks. Sweden has nice weather now too, but that doesn’t mean it will stay that way, which makes it even harder to pack:) But we are kinda done with what to bring. It will be two half full suitcases there and full ones back, haha. 
Now I’m really relaxed and ready for vacation. Jim has a half day tomorrow so if we need to change anything in the bags we will do it then.

Vi hade ett bra rehearsal igar. Vi hade nu Tim dar och kunde jobba pa partnering. Liksom ett tidigare rehearsal sa fick min vanstra axel ta mycket vikt, men det ar helt ok. Dock sa testade vi en ny grej igar och jag fick hela T’s vikt (= mindre vikt hos Lilja) i en konstig vinkel och jag kande att nagot hande i axeln. Det var inte sa farligt da och vi repade i tva timmar till. Men kvallen och hela natten har jag haft en enorm smarta. 
Imorse varmde jag upp axeln och smort in med massor av icyhot, sa nu kan jag iaf lyfta armen. Det kanns som att det bara ar muskler som blivit mora, sa det blir nog bra snart. Hade tankt kora stenhart pa gymmet nu innan semestern, men jag far nog ta och vila armen idag iaf. Kan gora annan traning.
Som sagt, vi hade ett bra rehearsal igar. Redan nu kanns vi mer forberedda infor sommarens projekt an vad vi kande en vecka innan vi akte forra aret. Jag kommer vara borta i tre veckor och nar jag kommer tillbaka ska vi jobba pa det sista. Bl.a fa in lite horsetime. Ater igen, jag ska ju inte vara med pa sjalva forestallningen, men jag ar lika delaktig och vill att det ska ga bra for dem i sommar. 

We had a great rehearsal yesterday. We now had Tim there and could work on partnering. Like an earlier rehearsal, my left shoulder had to take a lot of weight, but that is totally ok. Although, we tried a new thing yesterday and I got all of T’s weight (= less weight on Lilja) in a weird angle and I felt that something happened in my shoulder. It wasn’t bad then and we rehearsed for two more hours. But in the evening and all night I’ve had an enormous pain. 
This morning I warmed up my shoulder and rubbed a lot of icyhot on it, so now I can at least lift the arm. It feels like it’s just muscles that got sore, so it will probably be fine soon. Wanted to go really hard at the gym now before the vacation, but I’ll have to rest the arm at least for today. I can do other traning.
Like I said, the rehearsal went well yesterday. Already it feels like we are more prepared now for the summer project than what we felt a week before we left last year. I will be gone for three weeks and when I come back we will work on the last things. Among others we gonna have horsetime. Once again, I’m not gonna be a part of the performances, but I’m equally involved and want everything to go well for them this summer.
