When you are reading this I will be just getting to Stockholm, depending on where you are reading from of course. I might still be flying over a big, big, big, ocean on my way to see things I have never before seen. In a country I have not set foot in before. I hope I meet a Swedish cat.
Right before I started packing to leave on Monday, in a final moment of artistic preparation for our trip, I did some practice sketching of a few scenes I want to try and capture while we are there. Expect to see a lot more things like this when I get home. In vivid color. In my travel journal that Mary Ann made for me and is bringing with her.
I am not sure how much blogging will be going on from Stockholm. I will be posting photos for sure on Instagram and will probably do at least several posts. I want to be present in the moment, experiencing this adventure instead of telling about experiencing my adventure, which can detract from the lived experience. That was a mouthful. But you know what I mean.
I do plan to take lots of pictures and tell stories about the people I see and the things we do when I get home. Mary Ann is going to be posting videos on her YouTube Channel so you might want to take a look at those if you are in need of some entertainment. Appreciate all your good thoughts for safe travels and no missed connecting flights!
Safe travels, and have an awesome time.

I know what you mean by 'blogging' instead of 'being'.
Made that mistake too many times in my travels!
I believe Ram Dass said it best..Be Here Now.
May you both be joyously present in the Now. X anje

YAY! You two have arrived. Watched Mary Ann's video of the lovely apartment. I'm sure the Swedish cats have heard of your arrival and will be searching for you!
