I experienced the closest call to a bike wreck. An older guy wasn't watching where he was going on the sidewalk. He was on his side, & I was on mine. Then it was like my bike was a magnet to him and he almost walked into me. So I stopped. A few seconds after I stopped he realized that he was almost hit by a bike (or that he almost hit a bike)! Then he rattled off some long story in Swedish. I got the idea that he thinks I should have been on the road. The reason I try not to bike on the road is because of oblivious people like him! I just smile, nod, & said 'uh huh' so I don't look like too much of a foreigner.

I leave tomorrow evening for Warsaw, Poland with Angela (from Canada).
We will catch the train tomorrow evening, which will take us to the airport in Copenhagen. Our plane flies out pretty late. We will fly back to Copenhagen Sunday night. But we arent able to catch the train until late Monday morning, so we will be back to Växjö Monday afternoon.
I wont post again until I get back. I will have a good blog for you though :)
