Ha det så bra, Goeteborg!

It was time, to say “Good-Bye” to Gothenburg, the sea and the Astro de l’Est on Sunday for Markus and his colleagues. The Polish team, Tomek, Sebastian and Zbigniew were the first ones to depart early morning while the rest was still sleeping and recovering from the night before. Singing along and dancing to ABBA’s “Dancing Queen” and other old classics did make everyone pretty tired and so it was no big surprise that Sunday was very slow. One can not really call it sightseeing what Staffan, Helen Nicole and Markus did in the afternoon in Gothenburg’s city centre after Fritz’s departure but it was rather a gentle walk and a few relaxed drinks in a nice Restaurant/Bar called SoHo close to the central station.

Not everything at Gothenburg's Poseidon statue is big...

The flight back home for Markus was unfortunately not a direct one, but he stopped over in Frankfurt and thus only arrived at the departed home around 2330 and he just managed to unpack all his stuff before falling pretty dead into bed. The sailing though was absolutely worth it, the experience to sail in relatively cold conditions with full gear on was special and not surprisingly the fun-factor with the people on the boat was as expected also very high. After having spent two nights together with 11 other people (incl. boat crew) on a 25m long yacht it felt very strange to be alone in the flat as Kerstin only comes back from Hoerbranz to Vienna by train on Monday and both are looking forward to seeing each other again Monday evening.
