JAG ÄR I SVERIGE!

alright...and now the moment you have all been waiting for....

I AM IN SWEDEN! RIGHT NOW! I AM ON SWEDISH SOIL! i arrived here safely and have an amazing family i am so greatful for. they are most accomidating and helpful!
i had my first swedish meal in sweden, which was "Saffransdoftande Fiskgryta med Aioli" . .. salom soup. it was amazing. i will post the recipe some day. [there is a LIST of things that go in it. . .]

it is just so surreal to hear childrens echos from upstairs all talking in swedish. i feel like im living in a swedish lesson! but no questions to write down or look up for next week, because its all right there! and ahH! i am so excited!

i practiced and finally got to say to the children when we first met, "Vad trevligt att träffa er dig!", which is "how nice to meet you!"

i am soooo jet lagged its not even funny. . .the night before i got horriable sleep because i was so antsy, and now we are going into saturday night. . .

these are HORRIABLE photos. but the trees is norway when i left, and the blurry one is sweden less then an hour later when we were landing!


i can not wait for the sun to rise tomorrow and i can SEE SWEDEN!
we are going into Stockholm, ice fishing and ice skating!!
