Most of the rest of the time we've been hiking around the area and enjoying scrumptious pastries. So soon my journey will be coming to a close as I return to NY. I hope you all enjoyed my travel blog!

... just right. It wasn't too short and not too long. The last presentation was mine and was entitled "The Gospel of the Kingdom of God." We passed out the last of the handouts and tidied up the meeting hall. A number of our people had to leave on the 1:06 PM train that headed towards Stockholm. Some of the brethren such as the Asians both in Norway and Finland had to leave earlier for their respective destinations. We are talking about doing ...

... of the ladies to prepare serve. At this meal everyone could sit down and just enjoy it. We really thank all of our ladies who helped. After dinner we all went down to the meeting hall for a presentation by Stefan, a student from Gothenburg University. He had just returned from a LifeNets project in Ukraine with three other United Church of God members. They spent two weeks with our Vinogradov ...

Everyone who will be at our Summer Gathering has now arrived. Today's schedule is to have meetings in the morning and evening with time for recreation in the afternoon. Jim Franks spoke about the development of the 20 Fundamental Beliefs in the United Church of God. In the afternoon Bev and I drove with the Spenser's and Saxin's to Mora about one hour away. There we looked over a possible venue for the 2009 Feast of ...

... Paul Spenser and Ben Haworth were there in two white vans to pick us up. There was no other transportation and they arranged to pick people who were coming in. The Molnbyggen Strand where we are staying is about four miles away. You have to be careful how you use miles and kilometers. There is such a thing as a "Swedish mile." It is equivalent to ten kilometers. So, if you as a taxi how far ...

The preparations, packing etc took place at my family's house in Älvdalen, Sweden. I moved all my things here. Not paying rent is important when travelling for long time. Story on At home

Midsommer is celebrated in Sweden every year on the Friday evening between 19 and 25 of June, so this year it was actually one day after summer solstice. It is a big holiday in Sweden - the day is a public holiday and everyone leaves the cities for country or archipeligo homes. I traveled to Dalarna, a county that I was told is one of ...

A nice sunny drive south. Made quite a milage. Tired we rolled into Mora. Parked at the railwaystation by the lake. Walked for a bit, asked round for a good preice on accomodation. Found a Best Western. Had a few beers and settled in for the night.

Ja siis oligi: heitsime magama - sadas, ärkasime hommikul üles - sadas, terve päeva (24. juuni - jaanipäev! - selle päeva olime me lihtsalt telgis kogu aeg) - sadas, läksime õhtul magama - ikka sadas, ja isegi kui ma veel vara-varahommikul veidi ärkvel olin - sadas. Aga ennelõuna poole jäi veidi järele, korjasime kodinad kokku ning hakkasime hääletama. Oli kolmapäev - 25. juuni. Et jah - jaanipäeva meil ...

... talvel vaid siis tulla, kui lastel koolivaheaega pole :) Ja ta pakkus välja, et kui me kunagigi tagasi peaksime tulema, siis ta lubab meil oma maja kasutada - andku me vaid piisavalt natuke aega ette teada! - siis saab organiseerida, kuidas me võtmed kätte saame. Maja ise pidavat olema suur - vist kolm korrust, all keldris saun... Ka viis mees meid õhtul õige tee äärde, kust järgmine päev edasi liikuda. Kuskile mingi metsamuuseumi ...
