This is the first installment of the English summaries I have promised to make. I think I'll try to do them on Sunday mornings. As stated in the two previous posts:1) The flight went well, no problems with the luggage or customs. All passengers on the Cathay Pacific flight from Hong Kong, arriving at the same time as AK & Th had heavier and unwieldier luggage than the extremely heavy and unwieldy packing of our travellers.
2) The trip to IKEA also went very well, apart from some confusion about sizes and shapes of pillows & bedding. At the checkout the cashier had to split the entries in two, because the cash register wouldn't take all the items on a single receipt. Last item bought was cloudberry jam, which A the K has NEVER bought before. I think she doesn't like it much.
Another way of keeping up with AK & Th in English might be to use the Google translator, which is getting pretty good. Although it does some weird or plain stupid things, too. Like translating "packningar" with "gaskets" even though it's in a context of luggage.
