First, Wednesday was Dan's birthday. We kept it pretty low-key but had a great time. First we opened presents, then we went out for sushi, then we ate a home-made ice cream cake! It's rare that we go out to dinner just the two of us, so it was very special. And the cake was delicious! He said it was a good birthday, even though we're away from our families.
Both of us are starting Swedish for Immigrants classes! In fact, Dan started on Tuesday. He is so ridiculously excited. He interviews me now, asking me where I'm from, if I'm working, if I'm studying, if I'm married... He has quite a few sentences under his belt after attending class twice this week. He even learned some words I never learned in my first month of class!
I start my own SFI classes on Tuesday, but mine will be Monday through Friday from 8:30am-11:30am - very intensive! But I am greatly looking forward to the structure and purpose the schedule and classes will give me.
The last piece of news is that Dan and I are going to Barcelona for the weekend! We're leaving today (Friday) and coming back on Monday. We found very cheap flights and a decent hotel. This is one of the main reasons we moved here: the ease of travel!
I hope to update during the weekend while we're in Barcelona! Adios!
Have fun!!
