On Sunday morning there was a big rainstorm so our plans for an outdoor adventure were abandoned and we decided to go to IKEA which is only 15 minutes drive away. By the time we got there the sky was blue again and the weather was humid and very hot. We all felt a sense of familiarity in IKEA combined with the dawning realization that we are so far away from Sweden and that we're not just on holiday here. I asked Kerstin if she felt like she was 'back in Sweden' and she indignantly answered "No, of course not, why would I, no one is speaking Swedish here."
