Migrationsverket

I saw my first really truly rainy day in Sweden.  This morning I woke up to an actual torrential downpour.

I swam my way to the train and dripped all the way up to the Migration Agency in Solna.  I got there about 30 minutes early, checked in for my appointment, and was surprised when my number got called 5 minutes later.  I was done before my actual appointment time even rolled around.  It was incredible.  It seemed like I could expect a pretty good outcome so I headed to the Mall of Scandinavia to see what it was like.  The answer to that was HUGE.  There was a Tesla store (not a dealership - there was only 2 cars in there) which was unique, and two full grocery stores in the basement.

After trying to eat some lunch, I decided to head back to the house to take a nap and pack my bags before heading down to the ferry.

It's nice to travel by train because you get to read, or just watch the countryside flash past.  I enjoy it.

After napping and packing and saying my goodbyes to the Steffensson Family and heading out again on my way home.  I was feeling pretty under the weather by then and not so excited about the possibility of seasickness from the windy conditions...

I made it in plenty of time to the terminal and after a fitful ride back to Visby I'm so happy to at least be miserable in my own bedroom.  Right now I have an upset stomach and a fever of 101.  Tomorrow I think I'll be staying home from practice and hopefully sleeping most of the day...
