Hospital visit to remove a "gizmo" that has been embedded in my kidney for three weeks after surgery.
A great relief since it has bothered me daily during the time in Spain.

Travel Day
Left our hotel in Tarragona at 07.45 for the Airport in Barcelona.
Flight was scheduled for 12:00 but there was a one hour delay due to weather - probably in the Swedish end.
Landed in Stockholm/ARN about 45 mins late. Weather was nice to us, but apparently there were a lot of delayed flights and the airport was full of waiting passengers (and extra busy due to school holiday time).
Back home around 21:00 after a snowy drive home - where I luckily didn't have to drive myself.

MOC, day 3 - Sprint in the Old Town of Tarragona.
My third time actually running a race on this trip and the one I´m most pleased with. Almost no mistakes, maybe 15 seconds on #3 where I didn´t see the control flag and possibly less than that from some hesitation on the way to #1. Slow in the beginning of the course (some uphill) but better speed in the end.
Quite a few tricky controls/route choices in the middle of the course (#5-8) but taking it easy helped. Caught Bengt who had started 3 minutes earlier at #6 and we stayed together the rest of the race with me leading and doing the orienteering.
Results
This will probably be my last real run/training for a while i.e. unless some easy jog or skiing will happen before the week is over.

MOC, day 2 - "Long" Distance in Les Pinedes/Castillejos that didn't really live up to the name, only 3 km.
Nice day with mostly sun, a bit cold in the morning since we were rather high up in the mountains. Even some frozen puddles of water on the course.
Walking again with only one mistake on #3 that I blame in part on the map since the trail (?) I had planned to use didn't exist. Maybe 5 minutes spent messing around in dark green thorny bush before getting back on track.
Mostly nice and open terrain where even the light green was OK to go through.

Walking the Sprint race in Andorra la Vella. The city lies in a bowl surrounded by mountains so the scenery was spectacular. A few interesting routes but mostly rather straight forward. Nice and sunny weather but a bit cooler than the previous days - luckily no snow.
