Lucy and I arrived in Sweden this morning, after flying Continental from Minneapolis/St. Paul to Newark on Aug. 5, and then flying all night long from Newark on Continental to Stockholm, Sweden. We arrived at Stockholm's Arlanda International Airport on a lovely summer morning after a nearly sleepless 7 hours 15 minute flight that took us up over Maine and New Brunswick, then out over the North Atlantic, south of Greenland and Iceland, and after dawn came, over the Shetland Islands and Norway. Once we got through Swedish customs, we took the Airport Express train to the charming university town of Uppsala, where we are staying a couple days for a wedding of a former Macalester student of Lucy's. We visited the Uppsala Cathedral this afternoon, which is said to be the largest in Scandinavia. It has more organs even than House of Hope! Aaron, eat your heart out!(see above)
O.K., so I'm new to photo blogging and haven't quite gotten the hang of organizing the pictures in chronological sequence or of putting their labels in the right format. But bear with me. I'll get it worked out one of these times soon!
