We spent the last few days in Dalsland, a province in SW Sweden. It was a lot like Minnesota farmlands. We visited many of Dave's distant relatives and they gave us the royal treatment. Amazingly, they all speak fluent English if they are younger than about 60. We are very fortunate as English speakers to have other people willing to do the work of learning our language. It makes traveling very easy. They were super gracious and fed us very well.
Today we travelled to Stockholm. It is a beautiful city situated on a group of islands. We are just getting the hang of things here now and look forward to a couple days sightseeing.
Eleanor has recovered from her mysterious leg ailment and appears to be ok.
I am unable to upload pictures at this time but will as soon as I can. More later...
Yeah, I got your message... I was at work when you called. I was disappointed that I wasn't there to get your call! I have my finals tomorrow and I think I should be home around 4:30 or 5:00. So, if you can stay up until 11:00 or so there and call me then I should be home to receive your call. Otherwise just call and leave a message again - it was great to hear from you.
ReplyDeletePlayed out at Rush Creek Sunday... really nice front nine, kinda blew up on the back. 81. I think I found the driver though. I hit one 300 and dead straight on 18. Had 4 iron into the green. Lipped out the birdie putt :) Also, I traded in my shirt for a really nice Greg Norman red shirt. I made sure it was short sleeved before purchasing it.
