sitting here with a feeling of christmas day... The day before "take off" is hectic as always! It has been lots of hugging!... wonderful to see everybody again... many of which I haven't seen since last years journey! This is the day for final adjustments in many ways the day our journey begins when everybody gathers at the farmhouse in Klövsjö. Although for most forbönder the preparations of this years journey started right where last years market ended. Training horses, repairing equipment, Personally I've spent the last day repairing my furcoat. The hundred year old seams have to put up with all sorts of more or less athletic maneuvers and need some love and care to keap me warm for these couple of weeks. For once I managed to pack my belongings the day before leaving instead of the morning before leaving, so I feel quite proud and responsible. I'm afraid that will end abruptly when I realize all the things I've forgot. The evening entertainment has just started. Music,singing and stories from old times are being told... and I suspect it will last for quite som time yet! :)
For those of you who have the opportunity to come visit us along the way please do!! Hugs //Jen
