A rainy
Swedish midsummer at its best!
I am so fed
up with the Swedish summer weather. Whole June has soon passed and we haven’t
had more than a couple of days of summer weather. Gah!
Anyway,
midsummer passed and we really made the best of it. We were a gang of almost 30
people of mixed ages (from 8 months until 89 years old) and we celebrated a
real traditional Swedish midsummer.
We all
arrived at lunch time. We prepared the paypole full of flowers and leaves. And
then of course we danced around it.
After that
we had the traditional herring lunch followed by the even more traditional strawberry
and cream cakes. Few midsummer shots together its “shots songs” (nubbevisor)
warmed people up.
Then it was
time for the games. We were split into teams and completed 6 tasks together.
Much fun.
In the
evening we had BBQ, more singing and a music quiz.
The weather
was crap but our day was great fun anyway. More Swedish than that is hard to
get :)
