"Come downstairs and enjoy us?"

It's very funny the things that get literal translation into the English tongue, I think I almost fell out of my chair when she said this. In fact I am still giggling about it now. My friend Erin is engaged to a man named Henrick that lives here is Stockholm she told me that if I brought him some cheeze-its he would take me out for a beer. Last night I called up Henrick and he and his friend Max took me out for a night of drinking Stockholm style. We took the "t" (the subway) to the island of Gamla Stan, the oldest part of the city, and went to a bar called Medusa. While sitting at a table that was perched on a small balcony/floor/level inside of the bar one of Max's friends Jon who was Greek and was a spitting image of Telly Savalas started talking to my friends in Swedish. One by one his girlfriends came up the stairs and said hello to us, all of them very different in style. Well one girl had dreadlocks, very blond Swedish dreads and after introducing herself to us she left. In the mean time Jon (aka Kojak) was coming and going down to the bar and back and the girls wanted us to come and hang out with them. Then the dreaddy girl walks up the stairs and says something in Swedish to my friends and then turned to me and said "come downstairs and enjoy us". We all had a very good laugh about it all night long and I still am giggling and I think I will for many days.
