John & I packed up Easter morning, & left with 2 others that were going to the same airport as us. John had been up since 5, because that's when the drunks came in & started snoring. So he was ready to go! We thoguht going with the 2 girls was a good idea because one was from Mexico & spoke Spanish fluently. THe other was from Texas. John's suitcase wheel froze up right after leaving the hostel, so it was hard to pull it. He ended up carrying it most of the way! We got on the train to go to the airport. 40 minutes later we realized we were going the opposite way. So we managed to get back, find a taxi, & rush to our flights. John & I were early to begin with. But the our flight was delayed 1 hour 40 minutes. After that flight, we got on another in Stuttgart, Germany that was 35 minutes delayed. It brought us to Copenhagen. Then we waited for our train for about an hour. Luckily, we found out early that our direct trip to Vaxjo was cancelled. We had to switch in Malmo. My new suitcase made it wonderfully through this whole trip! The weather was freezing here! It was snowing like crazy, & still is. Vaxjo expects 14 inches of snow this week. I had flip flops on last night!!! When we got here 2 of my friends picked us up, and took us to our places. John is staying with Adam.
We really missed family on Easter. John & I read the Easter story together on the flight from Germany. We read the Good Friday story together Friday night. Other than that, we had lunch sandwiches, all day long. One of which was a raw bacon sandwich. EW! John managed to gag that down, but it was hard. We got tiny cans of Coke on our flight. John says "it's like drinking out of a thimble". Sure missed home cooking!

We had snow on Easter too! Though I don't think we had as much as you did! Glad you had a safe trip even though the traveling didn't go so smoothly.
Sounds like you had a good time. can't wait to see picts.!!
I like the way John talks! "Chewbacca" and "thimble" had me laughing!!
btw, I meant to e-mail sooner but...with your camera, I just turn mine on and most of the time just leave it on. It goes to sleep by itself and it turns back on quicker this way hth! (umm, Hope To Help)
And I've gotten a few pictures of "back home" and I'll try to get them to you by the end of the week.
HAPPY EASTER!

Howdy all,
just wanted to let you know what you missed: roasted ham, brocolli salad, homemade dinner rolls, cheese potatoes, lettuce salad, cherry delight, A. Shawna's cookies, two kinds of cake (one with peeps on it of which Livy's snuck one down and licked the icing off the bottom, and put it back, we saved that one for ya). And of course...sweet iced tea...have you learned to like tea yet like normal people? I probably missed some but i'm sure you get the idea. We had fun, but did miss havin' you around, we just had to pick on Lex and Asholyn a little more.
Keep having fun,
Uncle Mike.
What an Easter to remember. Ours was not quite so eventful. It was to cold to hide eggs outside so we hid them inside. Just imagine 12 kids hunting candy in our house. We missed you and your pretty smile. Glad John was with you for the holiday, raw bacon sandwiches and all. love you gs
