Sorry I haven't written in a while! I was gonna write about Stockholm right after returning home, but there you go...
The second day didn't start so early...since we had already taken R2 (completely normal) there, we could sleep a tiny bit longer.
As expected, it wasn't that many people there on sunday, atleast not in the morning, and that meant it was the perfect day to get the autographs I wanted from the actors there. Most importantly Billy Dee Williams (Lando Calrissian in Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi).

I felt completely fine this day, eventhough I had been sick on saturday. It all seemed to have dissapeared as quickly as it had come.
We had our parades ofcourse, which as I've understood, we're quite famous for there...they even advertise for it on the convention site. And true enough, as you can see in this picture, it's sort of a bit of a paparazzi moment.

I had been looking forward to meet Billy Dee Williams since I learned that he would be at the convention. Before the parade, I decided to go and check out the pictures that he had to be autographed and I talked a littlebit with him. But he seemed distant, tired and not very interessted, and I figured out that it must be because of the jetlag or something like that.
But as I talked to other people, some of them told me that he's always like that, and it seemed that he had a littlebit of a negative reputation as I've heard it even before the convention from someone else also.

However, I decided to get my autograph after the parade and went over for it. I told him that I loved him as Berry Gordy in "The Jacksons; An American Dream", but he sort of looked at me as if he had no clue what that film was at all. It made me very insecure, and hell, I've met Michael Jackson and wasn't nervous, but this guy made me nervous!
As I gave my name to the person next to him after picking out the picture I wanted, he must have gotten it wrong, 'cause he wrote "Ellie" on the note and handed it over to Williams. I didn't notice it, and not even when he asked; -"Ellie, is that short for a longer name?" I was sure I heard "Elise" and said: "No, that's my name".
Then he gave me the signed picture and said: - "A pretty name for a pretty girl."
I KNEW there was some Lando in him! *nerd*

Tom Skerritt, the actor from Alien and Contact was really cool though, and I talked with him quite a lot. He's that kind of person who seem to know a lot about everything and started talking about my hair and how women in a Native American tribe has similar hair when they're single.
Michael Shanks from Stargate was also really nice, but very business like and straight to the point sort of.
Later on I went back to Billy Dee Williams to get an autograph from a friend who couldn't be there. I didn't have the money for it the first time around, otherwise I would have gotten it then. I already felt like quite a stalker. Trying to laugh a bit of the whole thing I said: "Don't worry, I'm not a stalker", when I came up to the table "this is for my friend."
He answered: "You can stalk me anytime you want!".
And that's pretty much my communication with "Lando".
To my absolute horror, I discovered later on that he had written "Ellie" on my autograph, and wondered what to do. Should I crawl back there, like the stalker I really was? Or should I have that and be forever irritated by it?
Crawl.
- "Back for more, huh", he asked. Hehe.
After getting a new autograph with MY name on it, I was pleased and went on with my life. My real life. You know, in science fiction reality.

Again, this convention was a lot of fun, and I stayed with good friends and met new ones as well. Looking forward to next time already!
Oh, and
