Our Apartment

When we arrived in our apartment for the first time, we each had very different reactions. Christine was surprised to find that our kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, pots, and pans! She was also surprised at the heated towel rack in the bathroom, and ran around exclaiming at everything. For her part, Jen found the apartment a bit small in comparison to what she is used to with Mike. She was not surprised by the stocked kitchen but rather discovered that our shower had no way of preventing water from flooding the bathroom! (This has proved a problem.) We will have to figure out some way of fixing this.

We discovered later that our windows have no screens, though it doesn't really seem to be a problem. We also discovered that our oven is in Celsius, which makes sense but didn't work so well for us at first. In addition, the settings are completely different and the instruction manual is in Swedish only.

For our privacy, there is one bedroom and one bed in the kitchen, blocked off by curtains. We decided that Christine would take the bed in the kitchen as she tends to be up later and is not all that used to privacy anyhow at the moment. We proceeded to unpack our things and eventually discovered that we have an attic space where we can put our luggage and anything else we want!
