The first one I have seen - this one beside the ice road across Storsjön (Great Lake)
on the (ice) road again

Cars have to drive at 30 kph, at least 50m apart, and you cannot stop on the ice road
ferry terminal to Norderön

Despite the frozen lake being strong enough to land a Boeing on, trucks are not allowed to use it (Swedish common sense) so they still have a ferry for bigger vehicles

One direction has priority - this would NEVER work in Australia. It would be a perpetual game of chicken

"skruf" snus
| |
|
I wanted to try snus - Swedish mouth tobacco - and Mona suggested I get a "white" snus to start with. You do not chew it - you stuff it between your lip and gum to one side. It definitely has a kick to it. Skruf does not mean scruffy, but it seems suitable for me all the same

speaking softly so I don't wake Mona after her night shift - here I am taking the outside clothes off and what is underneath for inside the steamy house (already removed the boots and mittens)
