Stockholm
Well after flying for more than 11 hours over more than 10,000 km, I finally reached Arlanda Airport, Stockholm (pronounce as Orlanda). Temperature upon arrival is 16 degree celcius and I am 6 hours behind M'sia. It was an exciting feeling. The first thing when I stepped into the airport is there are eco friendly, wooden staircase and it brings me back to Ikea. We have to go through up and down the stair case to reach to the immigration. It was a long walk.
Long walk is besides the matter but longer still the queue at the immigration counter. The officers are diligent and they really question my reason for being in Stockholm and I have to show them my return ticket before they allowed me to go through!
Finally, we can go and gather our luggages. It was rather warm inside the airport as there is no wind. Before I can see my cousin waving her hands at me, I have to still pass through another round of security check. I am prepared for high tech scanning machines. But this was more surprising - they have a trained cocker spaniel that will sniff at you when you passed through.. a doggie check!!!
We met cousin and hubby to be at the airport. We were brought back to their apartment and to have a rest. This is totally new. I am already on the camera and snapping all the way.
In the evening, we had a walked to the villa where future cousin bro in law's parents live. The journey have a very nice view. 
Cousin bro in law's parents are very nice people. They have prepared a lot of food for us to eat, mostly delicious local delicacies

By the time, we went home it was about 10 pm and the temperature now dropped to 9 degree. Well, it was freezing cold to me and my fingers a bit numb but it was fun to walk at that kind of temperature.
