... a little quesy but managed to down my breakfast. Today we were going to Stina's house for dinner so we decided to make ANZAC biscuits. They turned out really good except they decided to keep their ball shape instead of flattening out. No big deal. Stinas house was beautiful, however her bedroom wasn't practical for the taller population. She had a giant beam that was my forehead height and no I didn't hit my head so stop snickering ...

... have it on camera). Not suprisingly, we slept till after midday. On Sunday, when we finally crawled out of bed, we all walked to visit Ivana, a friend in a nearby housing estate. It took us a good hour of walking in circles to find her new appartment (I'm not sure if thats due to our poor navigation skills or our denial of hangovers (; ) The walk was nice though, with some parts winding through forrested areas. On Monday the 6th we drove back home to Ödeshög in the ...

... around. It was really quaint. We get a bit of attention when we go out. 1) Because Sanja is so tall lol. 2) Because we're not tanned like most Sweed's at this time of year. And 3) Because of our Aussie accents mate. On the 3rd we went to a small lake for a BBQ with Ivana and Zeljana's school friends (Erik, Albin, Marcus, Emil, Sophia, Sarah, Louise and Maria). It was a bit drizzly but we managed to ...

... as his Liverpool Soccer team is playing on Swedish TV. Liverpool is playing Chelsea at home at 5 PM Swedish time. It's amazing how people take on a different nature with sports and watching Paul was more interesting for than the actual match. Liverpool won 2-0. In soccer there is so little actual scoring that a goal scored is a major outburst of joy and exaltation. We ...

... wanted to talk more about that faith. What exactly is it? How does it show itself? How do we manage and increase in it? I wanted to have it opened to interactive discussion. We covered the main scriptures about faith...and continued on to the defining moments in or lives when we were granted faith and when and how we used and relied on it. We talked about trials and how they refined our faith. We ...

... engines and up with came information leading to the United Church of God. There was a little maze to go through as he evaluated various options.

... om Thailand. Vi ska ju till Koh Chang, där var vi inte förra gången. Ska faktiskt stanna där i två veckor, dock inte på samma ställe hela tiden, utan vi byter efter ungefär en vecka. Sista tre dagarna tillbringar vi i Bangkok. Där blir det shopping, shopping och shopping. Underbart!

... in the cathedral. We went straight to the proposed hotel and met the owner whose name was Lotta. She showed us around the hotel which has 75 rooms. It's right off the main city square that has many beautiful buildings. The location is very pleasant in my estimation. Everything in Sweden is much more expensive than in the United States and we are doing all we can to make the cost of the Feast as reasonable as possible for people transferring in. With the US dollar sinking, overseas ...

... and on and on. If you're into raw fish, this is heavenly. Bev likes the other things, though. At 10:37am sharp an airport bus is to come about a block away is to take us to the airport. At 10:37 sharp and beyond it never came. The Swedes are such reliable and orderly people, but New Year's makes them really drop the ball. So far we've struck out a number of times and I go look for a cab. It's 18 degrees F as I leave Bev in the outdoor bus ...

Paul and Kira would like to put out excess Good News's with a "compliments of" card about where it came from in Sweden.
