Back in Stockholm
I got back to Stockholm on Saturday. Amazingly, I made all of my flights (although, I had 2 close calls in Heathrow) - and so did my luggage!
I won't start with the airport complaints because I'm sure I could go on for pages! However, I will advise anyone who comes to visit me to leave more than 2 hours in between flights if connecting in Heathrow. Also, security rules in the US, EU, and UK are all different so make sure you know the strictest ones (currently, that would be the UK) before heading to the airport.
I had a good New York trip. It was good to see my family and some of my friends. Christgiving (or Thanksmas) was nice and relaxing. My family had Christmas (presents and brunch) followed by Thanksgiving (football and turkey dinner) on the 25th. I missed Thanksgiving so we made up for it. I went into NYC a couple of times with my family - saw the tree, looked at the store windows, went to Chelsea Piers, and saw Mama Mia. I saw the Good Shepard (which I thought was really good but a little too long). I went to the holiday light show at Jones Beach. I went to the Jets game on New Years Eve. And, I know I'm leaving out a bunch of other things.
Anyway, jetlag hit me hard on the back end of this trip so I haven't done much of anything in the past few days. Blogger was down earlier today when I was ready to post. But, I'll be back to posting more regularly later this week when I fall back into routine.
