Jet lag, moving and computer issues....oh my!!

I am having a lot of fun here in Sweden and haven't had much time to write! Kathryn's family has a lot going on right now!! First, I am dealing with a bit of jet lag. That sure was a long way to fly! Kathryn's mommy made a really nice bed and it was so nice to stretch out after being so cramped in that box!! Kathryn's family is also moving from one apt to another! It is going a bit slow but mostly because they don't see the sun very much right now, it is really rainy/snowy and Kathryn's daddy has been busy at work.

Kathryn's mom took pictures of what happened when they went to the post office to pick me up. She wanted to share them since it is a bit different than in the US.

They got a note in their mailbox, which is really a hole in their door! It told them where to find me! Since I was a big box, they got to go to the real post office otherwise they would have gone to a tobacco shop. Can you believe that packages are rarely delivered to your apt!!

The next pictures are of the kids picking me up. Notice the 'lovely' Swedish weather!! It was only 4pm and completely dark! Here are the kids getting ready to go inside. Notice the post boxes. One box for international mail and the other for domestic.

Once you get into the post office you must 'tryck' a number or push the button to get a number to wait your turn. Here is Jonathan standing by the machine and then showing you the number.

So, that was my journey to Kathryn's apt. It sure was long!! I am having a lot of fun and missed Kathryn on Friday when she went to school. Kathryn's mommy was right about me staying home. I slept so good with everyone gone for the day!

Today, I went to Kathryn's ballet class and got to ride an elevator and a city bus. I know Kathryn's mommy will put those pictures up soon. But now it is really late here. I bet most of you are about to have dinner and I should be sleeping! Can't wait to see what they have in store for me for tomorrow!!!
