We visited another pre-school today, which was quite nice - it was just outside of the city, so we had to get the train there. The trains aren't spectacularly different to English ones, so there's nothing really for me to comment on. I can't even mention the price, because I have a travelcard. Although, I think that was pretty cheap - it cost 660kr, which is about £50. That's not bad for a 30-day travelcard which incorporates bus, tube and train journeys, is it? How much would one in London cost? Ooh, I can also use it to get the ferry to one of the little islands that Stockholm has as well. So anyway, this pre-school was surrounded by trees, and it looked really nice. Actually, here's a picture, taken through the window from inside the building:
And in fact, while I'm at it, here's a picture of the 'waiting room' at the train station:
So yeah, it was quite a nice little trip. But I just want to clear something up - a lot of people seem to think I'm having a terrible time here, but I'm not. There were just one or two days towards the end of last week, where I was missing people; and the fact that I hadn't had the chance to meet many people was getting to me a little. But I am enjoying it here, it's a nice country; I've been all around the city, mostly in pursuit of goods (like crockery and a guitar), but I have gone to places. Also, I've mostly been stressed because of the amount of work I have to do - which I think I've complained about enough on here. There are still more things I want to do and see, but I'm sort of saving them. Partly for when Tamsin comes - I want to take the ferry to Djurgården cos it sounds good, but I think it would be nice to wait to do it with her, so that it'll be something new for the both of us.
So yeah, I've not had the best of times cos of having multiple assignments and going to hospital; but it's still fun being here.
