THINK Global School adventure begins

So yesterday afternoon I met Marta at Newark airport for our flight to Stockholm. All went well checking in and the like though we were sitting at opposite ends of the plane. The plane was filled with cardiologists and others in the field coming to town for a huge European Cardiology conference. I was sitting next to 2 women cardiologist from New Orleans.

So we land on time and get through passport control and then go to get our bags. So we come out to the carousel and... there are no more bags going around. We along with about a dozen others have to get on line to the missing baggage woman... yes there was only 1 at 08.00! she starts logging in the information and after us waiting almost an hour another woman comes. As we stand in line and lament what will do till tomorrow, a guy from the back of the line says he thinks he saw his bag outside. The new woman turns the conveyer belt back on and in come all the missing bags. Why he did not say something an hour earlier who knows, but thankfully all of our bags were there.

Aron met us outside and got us in a taxi to the hostel since he needed to stay and wait for Laura to arrive. So as I mentioned the town is packed with conference people and stuff has been booked for months so for the weekend at least all the girls are bunking together in one cozy hostel room. It should definitely be a bonding experience.

Took a bit of a walk around the posh area of town with Brad and then around the more regular area with Sherry. I am desperately trying to stay awake since I know this is the best way for me to combat jet lag. Monday I will get my last fun tool iPhone 4. Can't wait to start taking photos to share.
