To make things even finer, he left a wonderful care package for me at the finish, replete with loads of fresh salmon (already eaten!), other comestibles, a replacement GPS from Claire, and a ton of well-wishing cards from family and friends. Thank you all so very much! I will read some every night, to keep me feeling positive about the difficult miles still ahead.
Tomorrow's a shorter day - only 40 miles - so I'm looking forward to an early finish. We have two more days on the E26, before it becomes the E45. Truck traffic seemed lighter today, a trend that should continue as we head north. It rained at the end of today's stage, and more is forecast for tomorrow, but we've been generally so lucky with the weather so far that no-one's complaining.

Sounds like you had a good day :)
It's always fun running with Mike. I know he was great entertainment for you. If you were really lucky, he told you the joke about the bus and the river.
You look great! Keep heading north and stay out of the way of the trucks. You'll be at Nordkapp before you know it!
I have enjoyed reading all of your updates. It sounds like things are going great! Hang in there and keep up the positive thoughts. I look forward to a celebratory Thai food lunch back in Austin in a few weeks!
Take care,
Lisa M.
