Touchdown in Adelaide, Australia. Anders And Lasse have been too this city before, so in that point of view it is another dot on the world map, but Adelaide is only where their journey begins.

They hit two sixes on the dice, and could fast forward from Oslo to Adelaide. As the luggage arrives in the arrival area at the airport they start to wonder; was this a good idea or just an idea? Guess we are going to find out.

Usually when Anders and Lasse arrives in a large city, Anders would know which train or metro to take. Lasse on the other hand has an instinct for trying to lead to the taxi-que, by carefully saying “we shouldn’t just take a taxi instead? It is just as cheap when we divide it”. Anders have been in this situation with Lasse many times before and repeats “No Lasse, the prices for bus and taxi are not the same!”. Anders is used to kill Lasse’s tiny hope of comfort already at the airport. Anders is only necessary strict. This strictness is necessary after having travelled a lot with Lasse and experienced the shortest taxi trip ever; a taxi ride for 25 meters in Brisbane 2012, ordered by Lasse.

This time it will not be train, metro, bus or taxi. It will be a bicycle and it is going to be tough, especially for two guys that can we now ambitions about either the polka dot jersey or the youth jersey in Tour de France.

“Hot” is Lasse’s first words in the arrival hall. Anders just smiles. In addition the one thing that shouldn’t happen and surely wouldn’t happen, happened. They got the air conditioning flu or long flight flue, even though they talked about it and felt they were prepared.

Lasse sits with his blanket all up to his cheek, greatly inspired by the butterfly caterpillars he saw in the butterfly garden at the airport in Singapore. On the plane was the worlds largest Caterpillar, Lasse.

I really got the flu now Anders, Lasse says when Anders takes out his earplugs after watching Tarzan the legend. “Yes thank you, I figured after all the coughing that over sounded the crappy sound in my headphones from the movie I just watched.

Awesometralia – a normal life is boring.
