If it is Tuesday, this must be Sweden

The trip over on SAS was lovely. Nice plane and new features that included cameras mounted so that you see what the pilots are seeings either straight ahead or down. Very cool. Lots of movies, etc. Not much sleep and leaving at 11p makes for a long night.

The arrival in Copenhagen was easy and we were greeted by youth with big signs welcoming the LWF in the baggage area. Got our bags and then tickets for the train to Lund. We had no clue what we were doing but we were having a great time! The town is very neat + cobblestone streets, university setting. Unfortunately the hotel is out in the burbs near the car dealerships. No place to walk and take in the ambiance. Too bad.

Last night it was like a family reunion with all the hellos and hugs. Nice dinner with ample wine, etc. Everything is expensive. A glass of wine at the bar is 10.00. As is a glass of beer. (I didn't have both).

The sun is shining and it is cold. Meetings begin at noon. There is wireless accessibility here so that makes life easier.

Havenät learned any Swedish yet + other than "tak" and I knew that before I came!

Happy Tuesday to all and Dick , if you read this please bring a washcloth for Rafael also!!''
