Tack! Say it the Swedish way...

I came for a conference on stem cell research.  An annual meeting for ISSCR 2015, hold in Stockholm, Sweden. Today is my flight home, which means another 24 hours plus of travel, back to Malaysia.

My colleague and I took a taxi to our hotel, New World Hotel from Arlanda Airport on the first day after we reached. The taxi driver who used to come to Malaysia and had a construction company in Koh Samui taught us, tack, a thank you in Swedish.

The weather should be summer, but nothing of Japan's summer. Based on a few blogs that I had visited, I had a few layers of light warm clothes with a windbreaker, and it helped. Yesterday was the best weather so far that we had, and so we decided to skip the closing ceremony, and took a hop on hop us bus, and went to the best part of the town quickly. Anyway, Stockholm is the most expensive city, so not many things I could do or buy. Sigh!

Tack, and hopefully could see this place again next time.
