Sleepyheads

So, we`re supposed to be in Æro (I asked last night, it`s pronounced eru, kinda like emu, but with an R instead) by now. We are not. We`re still in Odense. We overslept. Did`t hear the alarm one little bit and woke up 20 minutes before the train. Oops!! Could have been that awesome beer we had just before bed. We decided to take a more leisurly pace, and here we are. This is the home of Hans Christian Andersen, so we may go by his house or something. l saw a store last night that really interested me, so we`ll probably stop by there too. Not that I can buy anything...all of it`s too big to carry!

Chris says I was being a bit of a Negative Nancy last night. I didn`t mean to be. Sorry if it came across that way. Thing is, I have to deal with all of the hiccups. Well, he does too, but Í`m the one figuring out the logistics of it all. As he says, he just shows up and hands over the Visa. Too funny!! No worries though, we are on track and are totally enjoying ourselves.

It`s funny, this trip is starting to feel realllllllly long. We`ve both noticed it independently of each other. Our last European adventure was only 5 days less, but it didn`t seem nearly as long. One thing I`ve learned, I really don`t like McDonald´s all that much. We ate it again yesterday in the Stockholm train station while waiting for our number to be called so we could make our reservations. Not my favorite. Neither of us can wait to get home and be able to have a $10 dinner. Dinner for under $40 over here is pretty difficult.

One thing I thought of yesterday, we all but missed the famed Stockholm city hall. It`s where they have a banquet for the Nobel winners, and is supposed to be cool. We kept putting it off and were planning on doing it yesterday, but ended up with only 40 minutes in the city. I managed to get a decent picture from the train. Kind of disappointing, but as Bob says, you always gotta have something to do next time!!
