Umeå - Stockholm
After brunch, the first-class train takes us to Stockholm, where Nicolas' friend Yannis puts us up. The evening becomes legendary: during the US Open final we end up ordering dinner for four twice, 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 Umea Östra to Stockholm Central. This train ride is very comfortable, we have plenty of space and there is free coffee, tea and fruit as we travel in first class.
We can stay with Yannis, a friend of Nicolas in Stockholm, and he picks us up at the train station so we can drive to Solna together to his shared flat.
We watch the US Open tennis finals together and order Indian food with Uber Eats. But the restaurant cancels the order for whatever reason. So we order Indian food again from another restaurant. But there are no updates and apparently no delivery, so we order pizza again via Uber Eats from one of the last restaurants still open (it is already shortly before midnight). This also takes much longer than stated and the pizza courier calls when he gets here. We go downstairs to get the pizza and then realise that our previously ordered Indian food has been left outside the door. So now we have ordered dinner for 4 people twice… :D We eat pizza, indian and our previously prepared rett i koppen soups and continue watching the tennis finals before we go to sleep.
