When Nina Met Tico...
August 8, 2000

Me, Turid & Camilla arrived in Stockholm 07:00, and we went to our hotel, Columbus, put our bags there, and then we wanted to take a look at the city. We went to a hotel where two of my Jovi sisters Pia & Marika were gonna be, I wrote a note to them both, telling them that I had arrived and wanted to see them. :-) 

We came back to our hotel and jumped in the shower, Camilla wanted to see some museums while Turid and I wanted to go and check out Globen where Bon Jovi would be playing the next night. And we said that wed met up again at 19:00 outside the hotel where Pia & Marika was staying, cuz I wanted to go and see if they had arrived. Outside Globen we saw a girl that came and sat down, so I asked her if she got in line for the Bon Jovi show, she said yes, it was now ca 18:00. :-) We talked for a while until Turid and I had to go. But we said to the girl that we would come back to be in the line with her later this night. :-) Before we went, we bought her a hamburger & soda,we felt so sorry for her, cuz she was wearing very little clothes, and it was freezing outside.

Turid and I waited for Camilla outside the hotel, she came ca 19:20 19:25, and I said that I wanted to go inside and hear if Pia & Marika had come. Camilla went in with me. I called Marikas room, but she wasnt there, but Pia was, and as I was talking to her I saw Richie, then Tico, I told Pia, and I just dropped the phone to Camilla and ran towards Tico,I could see myself running in slow motion :-) lol lol And I picked Tico on the shoulder, and I asked if I could get a picture of him & me together, he looked a little tired and serious, but he said ok fast. And I got my camera up,a woman said hurry. And Tico said if youre coming back later we can do it then. And I said no, Im not coming back later. Tico smiled and said ok fast, and I gave the camera to Tico, and he gave it to a bellboy, and then picture was taken. I said thank you so much. :-) Wow. What just happened.?! Richie was walking ahead of Tico so I could only catch one of them. :-) My God how handsome they looked, Tico just gets more and more sexy as the years go by. :-) 

I ran back to the phone in the reception where Pia were still on the line, I told her what just happened, and she said that she would come down so we could talk. As I was talking to her, I saw Marika coming towards me. I dropped the phone again. :-) It was so cool to see her in real life, I went in the bar with Marika, and got to meet her friends, Flor, and Marikas mom. Marikas mom said that she thought it was me when she saw a blonde girl flying after Tico. :-) :-):-) I told Camilla to get Turid who was standing outside, and when Turid came back in, she said that she saw Tico & Richie go in the car, and she got Richies autograph, but nobody got to take pix with Tico or Rich, so I was very very very lucky. :-) Thank you God. :-) 

As I was talking to Marika, I saw Pia coming towards us, I ran to her and hugged her,..wow, wow, wow, it was so cool to see her for real, shes so sweet, and sooooooo very very very beautiful. My God. :-) Pia mi I love you.:-) We talked a little, and we took pix together, and as we stood there in the doorway to the bar, we saw Hugh waiting for the elevator. :-) Very cool. :-) Oh Pia, it was so cool to see you for real, to talk to you. You are so sweet my dear Jovi sister. :-) We said that wed meet again at the hotel in Gothenburg since were staying at the same hotel. After we left the hotel, I called my bestfriend, Siw Janne, and she freaked out when I told her that I just met Tico. After that we went and got something to eate, and then we got back to out hotel.:-) Wow, so many things happened at the same time. :-) WOW.
