Half way

Stockholm Arlanda: easy check-in, friendly people helping with my bike... total weight checked in 24 kg. Handluggage appr. 6 kilos. No problems.

Bangkok airport: great coffee, great shops, and the sun is just coming up...

Tired, confused and drinking coffee in the middle of the night... The flight here was quiet so i got 3 seats to myself, still it was not easy to sleep since it was only afternoon in stockholm when i left. Another hour before the plain leaves for Chengdu.

My plan right now is to start with a warm up biking of about a week to get from Chengdu to Lijang where I was last year. From there i have 3 options:

1. make arrangements to ride my bike to Lhasa
2. fly across to Golmud to ride my bike from there to Lhasa
3. ride my bike in the mountains that are not restricted areas

Right now i don't know, But I already feel like i am on holiday and that feels good!

Du saknades på bryggan imorse. Spegelblankt och 20 grader i vattnet.

Eller så var det jag som saknades på ett flygplan till Chengdu...
