Tomorrow we are leaving for Copenhagen where we’ll be spending the night in order to collect Sara’s best friend Grace from the airport. International flights typically arrive early in the morning, and the train from here takes 3 hours, so we can’t get a morning train early enough to make it. Oh, well, it gives us an excuse to spend some time in what is supposed to be a very enticing city. Anyway, our little mermaid Sara is very excited to see Grace, and she’s been a guest of ours before when we rented a condo in Cape San Blas, Florida last summer. The girls enjoy their independence, and here they can make use of the vast public transportation system that will take them into downtown Gothenburg as well as to the local shopping mall, and we’re working on fixing the bikes to fit us better. Once we find the tools we need (who knew it would be so hard to find the right size Alan wrench here in Ikea Heaven??), there will be 2 bikes that the girls can use to ride to any of the beautiful local beaches. So, I’ve set up an extra bed in the (extremely) small bedroom Sara uses, and am washing the duvet and making a shopping list of Grace’s favorite treats. I’ll be ready - but Sara still isn’t! She hasn’t finished 3 of her classes and unless she gets the work done by tomorrow morning, she’ll be doing school work while we go hang out in Gothenburg with Grace. Hurry up, Sara – we really will leave you at home!
