Tuesday/Monday night

Hey all!

So last night, we had a dance. We did some Danish dances, a few Scottish/American dances, a crazy Swiss dance, and few others. It was quite fun :)

Today, after breakie, we had class with Hanneke (the American teacher) and she taught us 2 tunes in an hour. After that, I had a headache and slept the rest of te morning until lunch. Then it was off to class with Harald (where we learned another 2 tunes) but they weren't too bad. Then we had coffee/tea break before afternoon activities. While the girls did a master class with Harald, I went to hear Kevin (the Shetland fiddler) talk about "trows" which are the Shetland version of trolls. It was pretty unique :)

Tonight we have a surprise waiting for us followed by a jam so we'll see how that goes...

Random notes:

As big as football is in the states, no-one else cares...

REAL football on the other hand...

There are many more different kinds of bagpipes than I thought including French and Swedish versions...

The Fins spend a ton of their off-road car racing...

Danish cheese isn't too great...

Swiss people are pretty wacky...

Apparently I have a better English accent than an Englishman...

I am about to be an adult (at 6 oclock on the East Coast...)

Please pray as I am not feeling 100%...

I am drinking more coffee than i ever have...

Maybe the two are connected...

Adios!
