We wish you a lovely ongoing summer!

After a very successful Miracle conference the days have moved on. We feel very joyful and grateful for all of our friends and it was really exiting to meet a number of you during the conference, many of you that we have not met in several years! We hope to meet you soon again.

Now we will take a break and have some vacation. Nothing is planned yet, so we will just wait and see what might come. Does anyone have an idea about what kind of thing that might give us an interesting vacation encompassing? Something that you yourself has had joy and experience of – maybe an interesting tourist trap for small money – please mail us and let us know in that case.

We are open for all options :-).

Until we update this forum again – we want to wish you a lovely ongoing summer!

A miracle start!

We have had four fantastic meeting – a tremendous start of a wonderful conference. Sure – intensive with everything that needs to come together, at the same time exiting and challenging. Bengt would of course with all certainty have wished to be more present in the meetings, but have instead come to work rather much in the background since Arkens TV-work now is entering a new phase.

Party in the sky ;-)

Thanks! to all of you that gave your congratulations to us when we celebrated our 40th anniversary. Until the 12th of July Bengt was as you know a lone 40 year old man, but now Åsa have also reached that level.

The 4th of July Bengt did receive his certificate for “Private Pilote Checkride” and the 5th of July at 4 pm, for the first time, it became a real experience. During a little bit more than one hour Bengt was maneuvering an airplane – a Cessna 172 P. The flying lesson was a gift from Åsa and the children when he was 40 in January – an amazing experience. Especially for Åsa who sat in the back and did not see very much of the beautifully landscape that was under us. Anyway, she was by all means happy concerning the facts that she hade already made some great training, before the flight tour, in the Tivoli of Gröna Lund in Stockholm. Specially something called the “catapult” and “free fall”. But she admitted that none of those attractions could beat this. What a lucky that they had paper bags in the passenger seat. Åsa had fun almost the whole time. Bengt had fun the whole time…

The 10th of July we then had a small internal party for some of our friends, with raison d'être of our high age. From that point everything has just blown away during the past week until now. We hope that everything is good with you all and we whish all of you a good and continuing pleasant summer.
