Finally that day has come! We had yet another year of COVID-19, and when the restrictions were lifted – I couldn’t travel far away for personal reasons. It was first in August that I got that chance, but long driving time to my flying club (and long working days) meant I couldn’t go abroad on a weekday after work, and the weather also played its role. Needless to say, I felt more than happy on my flight to Höganäs in Sweden on the 24th August!
I didn’t have the time to do a round over Kullaberg, as I would normally do, and it was ok – I would rather meet my Swedish friends I haven’t seen for ages!
In Höganäs, there were already many aircraft, and one of them, OY-ABJ, was Sebastian’s Piper Tri Pacer:
Sebastian, my club mate, was on a several days tour in Sweden, and it was his last stop before going home to Denmark.
It was a warm late summer evening; guests were sitting outside, enjoying the sunshine:
With Rolf – so nice to meet again:
And soon Thomas and his son Silas also landed, and joined me and Anne for a meal:
In Höganäs flying club, they make excellent grilled herring, and we had it in a traditional Swedish way:
Vintage cars normally come by for these fly-ins as well:
Time goes quickly in a good company, and eventually we had to go home. Thomas and Silas on take-off:
Oddly enough, my first trip abroad last year was also to Höganäs 🙂
The views on our flight back home were amazing:
And the sunset – beautiful…
Small trip, but gave so much energy and satisfaction! I look forward to many more of them this year.
