Midsummer eve on the June 19th were surrounded by thousands and thousands of people inside Skansen. Typical swedish celebration where the old or young would gather together and dance around the decorated flower pole as seen below.
Most people will decorate their head with flowers and greenery of the leaves. I found it is so beautiful. Everyone will hold each other hand whether in regards we know each other.There will several layers of big cirle around the flower pole where they go around singing.
The weather on midsummer was not that shinning and warm. We had couple of light rain, windy and dark clouds. Yet it does not stop anyone from enjoying the mid summer. I personally felt cold that day and my fingers was not only freezing but numb for a while.
Some would go around with the very old traditional swedish dresses of blue and yellow which symbolise the swedish flag.
Couldnt get very good shot of the her as I am being squeezed in between all those crowd.
Gabriel was not so keen of the dancing around the pole and asked to leave. We walk to the nearby carousel where he took some rides and played games instead.
He tried the fishing games where he caught 3 ducks of the same colours and won a second price which he chooses the toys below.
One of the toy is just a junk crap that last few mins and it broke.
Blogging on beauty, food, travel, handmade outdoor furniture, family and friends I met along my journey.
