Hej hej! ! Well, we surely didn't know much about Sweden when we first started. We learned fast though, with our two experts Mummet and Goran. Remember those early morning language classes on board the S.S. Zuiderkruis? By the time we got to Europe we knew a lot more about what to expect in Sverige. There was the day in gorgeous Rotterdam and then the long, long train ride to Sweden. Even while carrying the suitcases the boys managed to sing the praises of Mr. Heineken. Finally, late Sunday, we met our families. We were all wor- ried about what they would be like. Then followed the best part of our entire experience, being part of a new family, a new country, a new way of life. It was hard at first, but we all made it. Sometimes it was the language, sometimes it was the food, but we learned to enjoy and appreciate all of it. There was the terrific get-together in Goteborg in july with the trip to Marstrand. The end came all too soon. Suddenly we were saying sad good-byes to our families and friends. August 20 we all met in Stockholm, the most beautiful capital of the North, for a final round of parties, sight-seeing tours, and our record-smashing trip to Grips- holm. Wherever we had been, in the mountains, at the sea, in the city, we real- ized that the real charm of Sweden is its people. Our families will always be a part of us, reminding us of the greatest experience of our lives. As the summer came to a close on the S.S. Groote Beer, as we dropped the sealed capsule overboard, as we saw the lights of New York and sang the national anthem at dinner, we knew that our summer in Sweden would always be a part of us and of our lives. Hej da. Likka till l
