    22 November 1954

    Dear Mom and Dad

    Our reservations have been amended so that we leave Stockholm at 5 PM on the 12th, and follow the same route home as before. We have berths all the way to help lessen fatigue.

    Anita wants me to say that she had her fur coat shipped to you in Pasadena, and she would like you to unpack and hang it up when it arrives.

    More about clothes -- Anita is making her dresses, including the two formal gowns. I have a dinner jacket but it is lightweight for Honolulu wear, and would not suit Sweden. So I will bring only informal suits and depend on rental when I get there.

    Much love,

    Linus
