4 days before take off.

Well, I managed to get a few things done. I went to the printer to pick up my jerseys - again. Unfortunately there was a problem with the spelling on the first print, so they had to do it over again. I was curious as to why they had succeeded, but they had. It was in fact very good. They told me they were sorry, but what's the problem. We all make mistakes now and then. Personally I make a few every single day.

Then I went up to the photo shop, Vejgaard Foto, where I got a Memory Stick with 32 MB. Now I am able to get digital photos from the entire trip. I also managed to get hold of some longer screws and then put on my rear carrier. I believe I have found a very smart way to put on the handle-bar bag. I have attached it with a couple of straps. I went for a little ride around the village. Everything seemed to work fine.

I searched for some Danish flags for the trip but the "Flag-shop" had moved to another address which I was unable to locate.

I have put out some more things on the table in our living room. I also finished an article for a bicycle magazine and made some appointments for slide shows.
Tomorrow I plan on putting out the last things. And I must try to get some flags. I may have to buy an adjustable spanner somewhat bigger than the ones I have. I bought one before the trip to Japan but it was confiscated by the authorities in Narita Airport. They promised to send it to me. Two years have passed, and I am still waiting.

I have not heard from my German connection. I may pay them a visit after all. And by the way, I need to get hold of a sleeping bag. I believe we have a few.

The weather forecast for Saturday sounds ok.
It looks like I am not getting wet to start with.
Everything will be fine.
