François got a helium balloon at the beer festival, and as we had each just drunk a litre and a half of beer, of course we did this after we left there. My turn. Was disappointingly not that high at all, until my last gulp of helium. Liège

roe deer

On my last evening at Manuela's I went outside for a smoke and heard something crunching past in the snow beside their property. It was a roe deer with short antlers going past. Västerås

Two young brothers. Manuela said they run much more in unison because of this. Västerås
running the huskies - action

Manuela runs the huskies in pairs with the quad bike. They run for a couple of km on paths through the countryside and follow voice commands for direction and stopping. If they have sore paws they wear little booties, like the one of the right. Västerås

Not a visual, but an audio record here. You can hear a few of them making their woodpeckery noises. Västerås

ice hockey in Leksand
| |
|
I really liked watching ice hockey. It's fast and furious, and the rink is small enough for you to be able to see it all easily (as opposed to footy which is hard to see from the other end). There was a big screen showing it closer up, but I didn't bother. I was expecting more violence, but they don't do that so much in Sweden, neither on the rink nor with the spectators.

start of the match, with the teams coming out onto the ice. There was singing pretty much throughout the match

The LIF fans are famous as a really enthusiastic bunch who focus on the positive. I really liked the many songs they sang along with throughout the match

before the match they brought out these Dalarna horses (symbol of the region and of Sweden in general) which had fireworks inside them
