Very interesting instrument at 1.12 .... never seen a nyckelharpa before ..... Looks like a nice day had by all.Do you guys listen mostly to your own language / music groups on the radio or the western stuff?

@mala265

I guessed this instrument would be new to foreign people watching, and there is no translation for it on google translate.. :-)

We are very much influenced of american and english culture and music in Sweden. The movies here are mostly american. On the radio it is much music with english texts. And everything is subtitled on the tv and not dubbed, so we hear english all the time. In Germany for example they dub movies to their own language. And yes midsummer is special in Sweden!

What color are the waters there?

[Archos72]

@ReDToRnad0 Very good question!

Trying to think about it I can´t really remember, but it might be "greenish"! It is kind of "dark" I belive, but it depends on the light and sun I guess!.. I will have to look and think of a way to describe it colorwise next time!

The water in Östersjön, or Bottenhavet as this part is called has "bräckt vatten" which means it is less salty than open seas like the Atlantic or the mediteranian! Östersjön is connected to open seas only through narrow straits.

ECUADOOR is calling me! Maybe I´ll have to go there for next midsummer! haha!

Yeah, Sweden IS Beautiful. If I was better with the camcorder I´d show just How Beautiful Sweden is!! The Light is fantastic in the summer, just awsome, especially low morning-, and evening soft light!
