hantsbearSo, 18 hours into my Swedish sojourn and what have I learnt...?
Cow and Chicken have been translated into Swedish.
Mid evening Finnish television invariably decends into vast quantities of people waltzing for no good reason. Go figure.
The chocolate cafe on the main square of the Gamla Stan does excellent hot chocolate.
A reasonable start. Now off to shop...

That explains a LOT....
Date: 2004-12-04 06:10 pm (UTC)I went to university in Marquette, Michigan, and on the local television station is a show called "Finland Calling." It's a news and cultural information for the Finnish-Americans who live in Michigan's upper peninsula (which almost could be a province of Finland if it weren't so far from Helsinki). Every show features... large quantities of people waltzing. Or two-stepping, or some sort of dancing. So when I read your entry, I burst out laughing like a crazy person and had a severe bout of nostalgia all at the same time.
Sounds like you're having a great time in Sweden -- way cool.
