Expedition

Big thanks to Mats for letting me reach the hash!

I started the drive up to Sollentuna with my dad in the car, but he needed to go for a walk with his wife so I dropped him off first. Easy route to Sollentuna, where I used to rent storage. Found the right road and the right house. Snapped a pic of the Baltic and a pic of the house. Headed up and rang the doorbell.

A man named Mats answered the door and I told him my name and I was from the Internet and handed over Ambassador papers. He was a bit wary of me taking pictures so close to his house, but I asked if I could just walk over there, no pictures required and he said that would be OK if he came with, so we did. Walked around their house and we got to within 0.3 m of the hash. And technically Mats visited the hash too.

Snapped some panoramas in front of the house, which Mats had said was totally fine. And they were totally stunning.
