"We missed our train to Kalmar, where can we go today?"
We were planning to go to Kalmar this day, even willing, but not so eager, to sit on a 3 hour train. Alas, we missed the train. And seeing how the train only comes every 2 hours, and knowing we had to get out of Lund for awhile, we decided to change our plans. So, my friend and I walk into SJ (aka Swedish train people), queued up (story of Swedish life) and had a little conversation with the ticket person...
I liked this church a lot because, while it was traditional, it had been modified to suit the current congregation. Like a children's play area in between the pews. Or the cutest diorama of the Nativity Scene in the main aisle. Or directions at the entrance of this one room church. People use this church, they share part of their lives here. It was so much more welcoming and wonderful than any church I've been to for awhile and it made it all the more beautiful.
Afterwards, we went had an adventure in the spirit of Carl Linneaus, botanist extraordinaire and binomial nomenclature guru.
