The first-class carriage on the train to Stockholm

Umeå - Stockholm

The first-class train to Stockholm, and an evening that becomes legendary when the Indian food we had given up on arrives just as the pizza does.

In short

After brunch we travel first class to Stockholm, where Nicolas' friend Yannis puts us up. The evening becomes legendary: During the US Open final we suddenly have dinner for four twice over, because the Indian food we'd given up on turns up at the door just as the replacement pizza arrives.

Today we sleep in and have brunch with Salome and Lucas. Then we take the train from Umeå Östra to Stockholm Central. The journey is very comfortable: We have plenty of space, and since we are travelling first class, there is free coffee, tea and fruit.

In Stockholm we can stay with Yannis, a friend of Nicolas. He picks us up at the station, and we drive together to his shared flat in Solna.

We watch the US Open tennis final together and order Indian food via Uber Eats. But the restaurant cancels the order for whatever reason. So we order Indian again, from a different restaurant. But there are no updates and apparently no delivery, so shortly before midnight we order a third time, this time pizza from one of the last restaurants still open. This also takes much longer than promised, and the delivery driver calls when he arrives. We go downstairs to get the pizza and find that the Indian food we ordered earlier has been left outside the door. So now we have ordered dinner for four people twice… :D We eat pizza, the Indian food and the Rett i koppen soups we made earlier, and watch the rest of the tennis final before we go to bed.
