Goodbye Sweden!


Well, today marks the end of the intensive program in Sweden! It's over! A few people have already left for the airport, so it's safe to say it's well and truly over. Gastronomically, I am not sad about that! Today, the administrator guy here handed me my meal ticket and said, "umm... are you vegetarian??" i said "no" and he said "good" and pulled a face!! i inquired further, and asked him if the food was bad, and he said that the sauce they put on the vegetarian meal today "tastes like smoked toothpaste"! haha. further investigation rendered further comment, including that the sauce "tasted like aeroplane seat". teehee. it was quite disgusting.

anyway, i'm leaving sweden tomorrow afternoon. in a way, i feel like i should go in to stockholm to look around for the afternoon, but can't quite muster the energy.

last night there was a big party and a few people made a couple of fires up on a hill near the campsite. everyone was up there making merry, with plastic bottles of plonk of all kinds of unfortunate flavours, lots of singing around the campfire, and general-rowdy making. it was quite fun. i went to bed early, but the cops were called at 5am...! whoops!

anyway i better go. will write more from ireland!!!
