| A rainy but not very hilly part near Sweden Hills |
Outside Sapporo there is a place called Sweden Hills, because you are only allowed to put up Swedish looking houses there. I went there with two Swedish friends and we got a lot of Japanese food from our Japanese friends who live there. We also got to see some Swedish culture.
 |
| There is a huge "Dalahäst", made in Sweden and shipped to Japan, in a park on top of the Sweden Hills hill. |

 |
| They had had a "surströmming" party the day before we got there (so we were lucky in avoiding that!). |
 |
| The Sweden Hills cultural center has a small library of Swedish books, including the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. |
 |
| The library also includes exciting books like the 1976 edition of the Swedish labor laws... |

| Japanese "nabe", very nice food |
Åhh vad jag hade velat vara med på det surströmmingspartyt!! :-) Jag älskar surströmming och att äta det i Japan hade varit coolt!! Jag hade kunnat ta Miyuki med mig, hon och jag åt det ibland när hon bodde i Sverige :-).. fast Micke skulle absolut INTE velat vara med!
ReplyDeleteJag kan äta det, men jag låter helst bli...
