The old church and the library were quite interesting.

In the rest of this country they tore down most of them during the 1960:s and -70:s. So it´s really nice to walk around there.<br /><br />It is a special feeling walking around in a town when most people still are sleeping :-) You can walk around as it pleases You and nobody cares :-)<br />Have a great day now!<br />Christer.The cottage by the Cranelakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07521318192039394408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-948212455535029702.post-22891858733144111972010-07-24T17:35:03.062+02:002010-07-24T17:35:03.062+02:00Hi Z&M!
