You have no idea how happy I am that cast is finally here. I have really rough day behind me and it all started from the morning.

In the morning, first we had problems with breakfast as we wanted to bake breads and we did everything right, but when we wanted to take breads out from the own, we couldn’t open the own. It had children safety lock and I didn’t know how to open it and we ended up calling our host dad to help us out and finally after that we had breakfast.

After that we rushed to office and since we came into the office, there was always something we had to work on so I ended up being without lunch because of too much things to do before cast coming.

At 4PM we left office to go to school where we had to wait for cast to arrive. Cast arrived around 5PM and it was so nice to see everyone. I missed everyone so much and I’m soo happy that they are finally here. Amazing.
Considering the logistics, everything went smoothly and we didn’t have any problems. Only problem we had was that 2 girls didn’t catch bus in Stockholm, so they had to come with the train to Sodertalje, but they managed to do that and everything was great.

Some of the host families were really innovative with host codes and I liked that very much. Everyone is with their host families at the moment and I’m happy that everything worked fine. I was manly responsible for host families during last 2 weeks so now when cast is here, I’m happy that it worked fine.

After everyone left building, our host dad took me and Faith to meet his mother. She lives in center of Sodertalje in nice apartment and read slowly and pay attention… she is 90 years old and she likes using computer and internet. Wow… that’s amazing. She is really special woman and I liked her very much. She cooked us nice fish soup and desert and it was really good meal. I still cannot believe that she is 90 years old and she does everything by herself.

This was very long day for me and this is going to be first day probably when I will go to sleep earlier that 10PM.

Photos will be hopefully uploaded soon. I just don’t have time to sit and upload from my camera to computer.
