Are we there yet?

Well, we are nearing the end of our journey of transition and let's hope the next few weeks will be relatively smooth. We will spend the next 2 weeks in a one room apt. that is 300 square feet. Sound unappealing? My thougths exactly. I think it would be an adventure if we weren't adventured out. We haven't secured where we will be the 3 weeks after that, due to needing to hear from the apt. we bailed from first. We are hoping to get a little house outside of the city and Rob can commute. We'll see. It is all up in the air.

By the way, there are pixs of the churches and more of vacation to put in the blog, right Rob? So, hopefully those will be up soon.

I will be thinking of everyone, but not really corresponding the next few weeks. We will not have internet at the "hotel apt.", as we have named the temp place for Saniya.

We still love Stockholm, housing issues aside. We went on a ferry to the island of Vaxholm last weekend to visit a fort from the 16th century. This weekend we went to check out the permanent apt. and walked the neighborhood checking out schools Saniya could attend. We found 4 Swedish schools we like and there is a bilingual school we have already applied for that is very close to the apt. We need to go through a government office to register for schools and it may take a few months. But, we'll see. Let's hope not. The apt. complex is a cement circular structure from the 60's (or so we think). It looks great for children and will be comfortable. Architecture aside, it is exactly what we were looking for.

So, talk with you all in 5 weeks or so. Rob will be online and can fill you in on our happenings.

Oh, and while I am thinking of it. Here is our new address:

Sveavagen 164 #D-11 (two dots over the last "a")
113 46 Stockholm
Sweden

We will be there Sept. 16th, so don't send anything until then!

Hasta,
