Wednesday, March 18 - the SECOND sunny day IN A ROW!!!!!!! Woo-hoo! We're excited that maybe spring is finally closing in on us after a dreary couple of weeks (weather-wise).
Today, our adventures led us to the Port of Goteborg - we got
a tour of one of the facilities that unloads big cargo ships. There were containers EVERYWHERE! It was really colorful and the large cranes were fun to watch in operation. They unload containers in several different ways and A LOT OF THEM each year. They also transport cars and their numbers are down dramatically this year over last for the same time period.

we stopped by a botanical garden for about an hour - - it was really nice to be able to wander around and find a park bench to just "chill" on for a few minutes.

they manufacture ball bearings. Like many of the places we've been, they are a global company and are set up really well to handle tours. Their processes were very interesting but somewhat difficult to see - -many of the operations are done with robotics.

This is Anders - he's been our GSE host here in Partille and, at times, we bomb-barded him with cameras but he always has a smile on his face. He's doing a GREAT job considering this is the first time Partille has hosted a GSE team!!!
Before dinner tonight, AnnaCarin and I took a nice walk through her neighborhood and out into the countryside, we "hopped" through an electric fence and went by some bubbling streams - - it was really nice.
