It was December
of 2006; my wife and daughter had a mother-daughter trip planned for Southern California
during that holiday’s break. My son and I didn’t have any plans other than
filling our days with our hobbies. During the first week of December it
occurred to me that a father-son trip may not be a bad idea. At the time I
became captivated with the idea that a trip that gets us closer to North Pole
may better fit the spirit of that holiday season. So, I asked from my son which
one he prefers, a trip to Anchorage, Alaska, or Stockholm, Sweden?” Without
even a second of delay he told me “Stockholm!”
…and so, our 8-day trip to Stockholm began. At the time I had absolutely no idea that I was grooming myself for entry into another dimension. A dimension not only of sight and sound, but of mind. A journey into the twilight zone (click here to feel my mood!)
