Last day in Stockholm for a while. I had to come back for my last project meeting with the customer and Alastair to attend World Water Week. It has been two busy weeks but very nice being able to meet up with everyone a final time, as well as enjoying the social events at WWW. Now we do not plan to return until well into 2014.
Last week was hectic catching up with work and packing up the last in the apartment. New tenant moved in as planned. A few dinners as well was great.
Saturday, we decided to go and have dinner at the restaurant where we had our wedding dinner. As soon as we walked in one of the waiters from the dinner walked up and welcomed us back. We got a complimentary drink and he took really good care of us all evening. He also asked for some photos from the dinner and thanked us for the card which the manager had passed around the staff.
This week followed the usual WWW program. Monday evening Mayors welcome and reception at the Stockholm Town Hall. It was nice to be invited and meet some interesting people. Tuesday was Dinner&Dance at Entertainment establishment Hamburger Börs. Very good show. Then I lost Alastair and his mobile had discharged. It took an hour to regroup. How did we manage before mobile phones? Wednesday had drains in apartment fixed, at least on my free evening. Thursday Royal Banquet with the King & Queen of Sweden. We got really nice seats this year.
Now I am sitting at reception at the office waiting for my car battery to charge so that car will start and we can get bags for Washington loaded. This afternoon lunch with ex-neighbors and their dog and tonight dinner in Märsta! Looking forward to both!
