We celebrated midsummer at Gunnebo Castle and had a wonderful time.

Skansen kronan

Tuesday, 16. June 2009, 17:16:03

Yesterday Carolina and I spent a nice evening in the sun at Skansen Kronan. This old fortress, and its twin counterpart, Skansen Lejonet, was built in 1687 to protect Gothenburg against the Danish.

Taking a walk in the surroundings of Nääs castle. The castle itself is beeing renovated now so no photo of it this time. This is another nice house nearby. I like the typical Swedish style with red and white colors, and the contrast with the dark skies and sunshine at the same time. It was almost about to start raining... but it didn't.

Hundreds of years ago a trend started in Sweden where almost all houses were painted in red and white. The red color was cheap and came from the Falu coppermine, it contained minerals that made the paint last longer and it quickly became popular.

Today Carolina and I visited the Götheborg ship. We had a great time and it was a lot of fun going onboard. It was a perfect day in the sun. The guided tour was nice and at the end we even made the famous Titanic pose.

Spy city walk

Friday, 15. May 2009, 19:20:21

I went to a city walk with Rikard on tuesday. It was about spies in Gothenburg during WWII. We visited places such as the HQ of the Swedish military secret service, the place where the German Abwehr agents lived, the Danish resistance movement and got to know the story about the Japanese submarines in Sweden. All in all it was a good walk.

The voting game

Monday, 13. April 2009, 20:08:13

Me and my friends can spend an entire evening voting on stuff. A few weeks ago we voted on all Tintin album covers to find out which one was the best looking. The voting is always divided into several rounds and one big final. This weekend we voted on 50 randomly selected movie/TV characters. Above you can see a few of them. I'm already looking forward to the next vote.
