Mid Night Hot Without Clothes

among Swedish students

This year I just stayed away from the Carnival in Copenhagen, and I crossed the Øresundbro as I do very often, to see how things were going in our dear neighbors . Is that Lund, university town located about twenty kilometers from Malmö, is held every 4 years a completely delirious carnival organized by the students. Stroke of luck, he fell this year, it was therefore not miss it. I had already visited Lund several times, is a medieval town rather cute, but frankly not great. And then it seemed that everyone in the region had a rendezvous here, streets were really crowded. Having arrived a little late, I missed the start of the parade, but there was stuff that did not make me regret moving:


I saw dancers .. .


still dancing ...


musicians ...


a pirate ship ...


a truck with anarchists inside ...


alternative culture ...



chariot medicine ...


a tank to make fun of trains SJ (Swedish Railways),
with the sign "The Upsala from 13h65 never happens." ..


types tobogganing on a volcano in Iceland ...


But my favorite was undoubtedly the chariot Svensson full of blonde and blond

All around him prancing widgets typical Swedish, the opportunity to review the basics of culture :
real Swedish




elk, the animal emblem of Sweden


more difficult, he is disguised as Dalahästen ( horse of Dalarna), a traditional figure



and it is not toothpaste, but the kaviar (mixture infamous spread)



finally There was a köttbulle (meatball), a basic Swedish cuisine
(They are also consumed in quantity in Denmark, where they are called frikadeller)


Personally, I would have completed the table with a potato (present in every single meal Swedish) and with knäckebröd (Wasa crackers) ... Have a great carnival!
