On Sunday I stepped foot in Sweden for the first time. coming out from the baggage claim I saw my aunt Betty smiling and waving at me. We headed back to her and Celio's house in suburban Gothenburg. After a 2 hour nap to recover from the days travels, I went downstairs and saw my cousin Therese holding a little squirming bundle. That small bundle turned out to be my new first cousin once removed Isobel or Bella if you prefer. She is 4 months old, toothless and adorable. Looking at her I thought of that movie Children of Men and it made me sad to think so many fictional people never got to see a baby. Bella has soft brown hair, and huge brown eyes that seem astonished by everything in the big bright world. The next day Bella, Therese, Anders, and I went to Liseberg, a theme park in Gothenburg. Anders, Therese's boyfriend, is extremely fun to hang out with. He kind of reminds me of a guest star on Scrubs I saw, Lucas Douglas. I googled his name. We went on a couple of the rollercoasters that were there, and came out laughing each time. Anders and I pressed Therese to go on a ride similar to Supreme Scream at Knotts Berryfarm. She didn't come out laughing. And the whole time we were going on these rides, eating at Burger King and pushing through crowds little Bella didn't cry once, which I thought was pretty impressive. We went home, and I had a hard time getting to sleep. So I finally got up, sat down at the computer, and wrote the Spider Man post.
