To celebrate the Swedish National Day, the Swedish Community in DC had organized an evening picnic at the Ambassador’s Residence. Or rather, they had organized with music (Lund’s University Orchestra if I remember correctly) and a lawn, and everyone brought their own food. Both Monika and I were quite busy yesterday so we agreed to just bring pizza, fruit and coffee, and make a quick stop. I am glad I went because it was nice to catch up with some of my Swedish acquaintances here and to get away from my computer for a while, since I sent most of it working.
