I spent this past weekend with Maggan, Ulrik, Viktoria and Johan. We celebrated Valborg in the rain, watched the May Day parade, ate fish (the picture is my favorite Göteborg dish--fish gratäng: white fish and mashed potatoes in a sauce of shrimp, crayfish and dill--so good!)...
It's good to have Swedish friends...
I am trying not to have a lame-duck finish to my time here. I have much to do right up until the end of my stay in Sweden. That said, I still can't help but reflect. So, I will post a number of reflections up until my departure. This first reflection is about independence. I have considered myself quite independent and have succeeded in spending much of my time here alone--happy and productive. I have, however, decided that I don't want to be so independent. I wish Kerry was with me here in Sweden...we should have planned it that way.
Next time I take off, it will be with Kerry. I want us to be together. I miss other family and friends too, a lot. And yes, I miss my crazy cat as well.
Anyhow, the rhododendrons are beginning to bloom...spring on the West Coast!
Wish I was there too. I didn't spend that much time in Goteborg, but I liked what I saw. I would love to see the spring in Sweden. Some day soon.
