Welcome to Our GSE '99 Photo Journey

GSE Team '99 USA Hosts - Sweden's District 2350 Monday, April 19, 1999 Hello D7150. We arrived on Saturday and have been busy ever since with short time outs for naps. We have made our presentations twice so far in Swedish along with a slide presentation and musical tape of John playing the harp. We are scheduled for presentations three more times this week. We move to our next families Friday. Following our presentation to the incoming presidents at the PETS, we were hosted to a champagne reception followed by a salmon dinner by the DGN Per Naess on Saturday evening which kicked off our activities. We have received presentations on Sweden's history, the EURO and several Swedish companies to date. Tomorrow is a vocational day with all of us visiting companies and organizations involved with our interests. We will send you pictures so you can follow our exchange visually. - Ray Allen, Team Leader. I met the team for an hour or so on April 16 (day of arrival). They all seemed to be in good shape - perhaps somewhat tired. They had to stay at the airport in Chicago for more than six hours April 15. Rain has now been replaced by sunshine. Intend to post more photos the evening of April 20 - got these at midnight (April 19/20) in Sweden. - Bjorn Cedervall

Hard work already the first night - but what kind of place is this (two team members already lost)? (only innocent game of darts)	Exchanging flags
