Bruksvallarna Camp: Day 2

The only plan for the 2nd day of camp was to travel from Lillehammer to Bruksvallarna which was supposed to be a 6 hour journey, so as scheduled, we left at 9am after breakfast and hauling 12 ski bags up on the roof of the squad van. I soon fell asleep in the back of the van and didn't wake up until our first petrol station stop, and then I pretty much went back to sleep however the next time I woke up, expecting to be well into Sweden by now, I found we'd ended up about 500m further than the last stop. It turns out every road we tried to go down to get into Sweden had been closed off! At this stop, as I was half asleep, I didn't bother getting out and therefore missed spotting Swedens #1 XCSkier Marcus Hellner in the service station- much to my disappointment! We finally set off again, this time finding a route where we could actually get to our destination (and once more the headphone went on and i went sleep)!
      We arrived at our cute wood cabins in Bruksvallarna at 8pm, my team-mate Katy and I got the upstairs bedroom of the 'girls cabin', and there's a sauna in the bathroom which will definately be getting used (but not till after Sundays race)! And we have a nice big, warm wax room for all our race prep which is good.
        After settling in I joined a few of the boys for a stretch and run down to the stadium before dinner and then back to bed shortly after!
