Trip by plane to Stockholm

2016-01-20.  Me in the plane to Stockholm.
2016-01-20. Me at Umeå Airport. I was sick in spinal stenosis. I only  could go with a walker. But it was too difficult to take the walker to Stockholm. That's why I could borrow a wheelchair at the airport.
2016-01-20. I should go with this plane to Stockholm.
2016-01-20. It was cold, -20 degrees Celsius. (-4 Fahrenheit) but we had warm clothes.
2016-01-20. The Norwegian plane.
2016-01-20. There are no gates at Umeå Airport. You have to go out and go on the staircase in the plane. I could go on the staircase. As I told, my problem is I can't walk long.
2016-01-20. The window of the plane. The people are coming.
2016-01-20. The air port staff working around the plane.
2016-01-20. As it was cold, they needed to spray glycol on the wings of the plane so there should not be ice on the wings.

2016-01-20. He, he, he, a walking lock! :-D

They lock the motor of the plane temporary with this lock, so no glycol can come in the motor.
2016-01-20. The plane was starting.
2016-01-20. The plane is lifting.
2016-01-20. We still were under the clouds.
I remember summer 2014 when we went to Stockholm on a vacation trip. Then the sun was shining and we flew over the Ume river.
2016-01-20. Now everything was grey.
2016-01-20. There was snow on the ground. And snow and ice on the river so we did not see the river.
2016-01-20. We were flying higher.
2016-01-20. And still flying higher.
2016-01-20. Now we were above the could
2016-01-20. We were reaching Stockholm.
2016-01-20. There were no clouds here.
2016-01-20.

2016-01-20. We were landing. BOING!
2016-01-20. Me at Arlanda. Also here I could borrow a wheelchair.
2016-01-20. We were on terminal 4. From here we should take the bus to Märsta.
2016-01-20. Taken from the bus. A decoration plane.
2016-01-20. Pictures taken from the bus
2016-01-20. It was a long bus trip.
2016-01-20. There was snow in Stockholm too. Bus not as  much as in Umeå
2016-01-20. A plane was flying over the bus.
2016-01-20. Märsta station.
2016-01-20. From here we should take the bus to Löwenströmska hospital.
2016-01-20. We were a long time in the hospital. I met 2 different doctors. The surgeon told me I need a surgery in my back.

I don't know yet when I can get the surgery. I trust the doctor.

2016-01-20. Märsta station late in the afternoon.
2016-01-20. Arrival in Umeå. A blurry picture of me. The reason is because the staff at the airport had reflectors on their jackets. But I wanted to have the picture  here.
