Ice Cream Diplomacy

(Emma) The other day we went to the US ambassador’s house in Stockholm for dinner. It was amazing and a superb way to end our time in Sweden. I had a fantastic time and I can’t even describe how much fun I had! It was kind of weird to get past the guards, but Mr. Ambassador a.k.a. Matthew was an amazing person and was very fun to be around. We had chicken on a stick and an ice cream party and everyone had cards with their names on them with gold U.S seals at their places. Even though his kids were not there, a girl named Bonnie was. She became a great friend quite quickly. We all laughed our heads off and did not want to leave when the night came to a screeching halt since we had to wake up in 3 hours to fly to Greece. I was looking forward to this night since I heard about it, and it exceeded my expectations! It was an amazing night and the best night of the trip so far. Well in my mind! It was amazing and I can’t find the right words for it; it was well… amazgreaperb. Well not that… better! Also, on the walk back to the car Dad asked what we would rate it on a scale of 1-10. Everyone yelled “10!!” in unison. It was great!
