I am currently in the Tekniska Museet in Stockholm Museum stealing their internet. Woo! This museum has an awesome robotics section that makes me really happy and I want to play with everything. Tomorrow Jer and I are supposed to meet up with Dain and check out more of Stockholm. I'm very excited because I'll also get to meet Pauline, his girlfriend. Stockholm is quite awesome, though the Swedish House, or the Tourist Information place is really hard to find because it's the basement of some store. Also, it looks awesome at night with all the lights.
Germany was quite nice. Not too expensive. We wanted to go to a Museum Jer had been to last year about Einstein, but no one knew where it was. Instead we went to a museum about Egypt. I saw some supposedly really treasured bust of Nephroteti, which I have no idea how to spell. I saw the Reichstag and some tower where the five main roads of Berlin meet. We also saw the Tor; sorry I can't remember the names of anything. Before Berlin we stayed a night in Dresden at a cool hostel that had a bathtub of cacti. We saw the Lebowski Bar, but did't go in because a guy on the train to Vienna said it wasn't all he had hoped for, nor do we really drink. Jer also left his camera in a restaurant that we then had to wait for it to open the next day which took forever.
Copenhagen was crazy expensive, and all right. I'm hoping for their sake that the smaller cities are nicer. Their tourist information place was cool and it seemed like they had a lot of museums and stuff to do but we were only there for a short bit and part of it was Sunday. It was really just a stop over to Stockholm.
Things are going well, I leave on Thursday from Arlanda airport, fly through Copenhagen to Spain, spend the night and then go to the US. I spend the night there and then go to Nicaragua.
I miss you guys.
