Lost in Haninge
This is Jan and Aga Witkowscy and their baby daughter Matylda from Ostróda in Poland. I met them in Västerhaninge on Saturday. They have been on a bicycle holiday around the Baltic region for a few weeks. But now they were lost and needed some directions to the port city of Nynäshamn. The only map they had was a Swedish one which was a bit tricky for them to understand. Their ferry was leaving in three hours so I decided to guide them back on the right track and followed them down to Tungelsta where I pointed them in the right direction, which was road 73. Hopefully they had no problem getting to the port in time, and as I'm typing this they should be out on the Baltic Sea. They have a company called Szkolne Round The World.
Right, as long as they're not looking for the Tour de France! Love this kind of bicycle holidays!
ReplyDeleteVery nice images and post!
ReplyDeleteThose two are serious cyclists! Look at all that equipment! So glad you helped them out.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing that comes to mind when I look at these photos (except how cute the guy looks) is this: what on earth is wrong with trains?!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos and story.
ReplyDeleteDarryl and Ruth : )
A brave couple and a good deed for our photographer. His reward: two very nice pictures 'on the road'!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a real adventure! Glad you were there to help out.
ReplyDeletewow, and with a baby! Impressive
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing adventure. People don't seems to respect the bicycle like that over here. It's a shame!
