Location

In a frozen field SW of Bålsta right next to a tiny road.

Participants

• Carl-Johan
• TheChef

Plans

Plans were to drive up with TheChef's Jag and have a bit of a road trip.

Expedition

TheChef came and picked Carl-Johan up in TheChef's Jag and we went on a road trip. Carl-Johan was the designated driver since he likes to drive in Stockholm and TheChef doesn't. Got out on the E4 around Lilla Essingen and the traffic was almost still around the construction work near Norrtull. Continued upp to Upplands Väsby and out on the E18. By now we had gotten past all the Friday traffic and things went smoothly. Turned off just before Bålsta. Of course the GPS sent us up the wrong way since that was the closest houses, but we wanted the field and had to backtrack a bit.

On this tiny frozen road we got closer to the hash, and eventually got to 6 m from it. Got out of the car and took some nice pics. The sun was just setting so it was beautiful but cold.

Before we started freezing too much we turned back towards the City and went and had a very nice dinner at Kalaset Corner where TheChef usually works, but not tonight.
