HOT HOT H.E.A.T

I got an sms early this morning (or maybe it was night) from Jonas telling me that they had arrived safely in Tokyo. I did ask him before he left to let me know that they had arrived. It's quite a long trip but as I looked at the schedule I think it's the same flighttime as it is from London to Los Angeles so not too bad IF you have good seats.

Our leader, Janne, was just great and set the tone by doing a new thing, for me, at the presentation. We had to, with our "wrong" hand, draw a picture of the person in front of us - called a blindsketch. That is we went up to someone, presented us with our name and then started drawing but only allowed to look at the other person, not on the paper. Boy was this difficult and boy did that break the ice. We then sat in a ring and we had to choose two drawing - one that represented what we thought other saw us and one how we saw ourselves. Then tell the others why and also tell something about ourselves. Very good ...
