Kikkan, Anna and I had a rest day today, so, like our last rest day, we slept in until we couldn’t anymore, which happened to be 10 am, again! So awesome! We had a leisurely breakfast which ended just as Emil was coming home from his morning session of paddling. A couple hours later we met Sara Lindborg for lunch at the top of a water storage tank. It was a really nice restaurant and we enjoyed the view after an arduous climb up many flights of stairs!

Lunch in the sun!!
We will head to Torsby with the Women’s team tomorrow after a training session here in the morning. It will be hard to leave life with Emil and Anna, as we have had many good laughs, meals, training sessions and just overall a great time with our hosts. Emil has said a couple of times that he is taking us to the airport for an unexpected flight out, but we are still here so he must have been joking! More from Torsby and the ski tunnel!!
