Sunday Sunday...

This is on the bus, it was totally crouded with people! And it was dark outside!
I think this is one of the last pieces of ice in the middle of Stockholm, it was the last one we saw anyway.
The view from where Liz and I sat, our feet hung out over the water.
You can see the ocean there, bare water, it wasn't that far away.
A lot of people cross country ski on the ice.
There is like a dividing point just to the left side of this bridge, the ice just ended and there was like 4 feet in between the two big peices of ice.
The very delicious breakfast!
So I woke up on Sunday a little late, that was ok though because it was a Sunday and I had no where to be early. I talked to Liz's host mom and she offered to make me breakfast, how could I say no to that. She made me an awesome american breakfast complete with potatoe. I felt like a king (haha) I don't know if I was supposed to feel that way but I did mainly because she made breakfast for just me. While she was making it we talked about what she had already done that day and she told me about going out on the ice and how nice it was and that Liz and I should go check it out. After I had gotten some delicious food in me we did go and check it out. It was a lot of fun to go run around on the ice, I don't get to go out on ice like that in Oregon so I like it just that much more. We saw other people when we were out there and the ice was pretty thick so I don't really think we had anything to be afraid of but it was really warm outside and a few times we heard the ice crack. The second time we heard the ice crack I actually became quite scared, I mean we're out on the ocean and if the ice just decides to break then we're officially dead, it was really loud and right below me so we decided to walk back and get on land. It was really nice though, warm and sunny, I enjoyed that quite a bit. The night before I had talked about meeting up with the other exchange students or even meeting up with my friends from Örebro but unfortunately that didn't happen. Liz and I were out on the ice for quite some time and when we got back to her house it was time for me to pack up and get on to Stockholm Central. I said goodbye to Liz's host parent's and thanked them for everything, they really were gracious to me and I am so happy to know them! Liz and I arrived at the station fairly early and so we took a little time to go chill. I was tired of being led around Stockholm and so I decided to lead the way for once! I don't live there but I have been there enough to know my way around a little bit. I guided us to the water, I am pretty sure it's the ocean but not 100 percent, anyway we just kind of enjoyed the weather and talked for about a half an hour before we walked back to the station and Liz and parted ways, she went home and I got on the bus, I thanked her for everything to, she was a good host I think. I took the bus home and I got dropped off at a bus station really close to my house, that was nice because I was able to just walk home. I took it easy and just chilled with my sister Caisa and host dad Tommy, it was late and it had been a tiring weekend. Sunday was a chill day for me :D
