Amazing open faced prawn sandwich and a beer for lunch with my parents! Why don’t we get these kind of prawns in Los Angeles?
We picked up my sisters kids from school after lunch and drove down to the very south of Sweden and Ale Stenar in Kåseberga. Last time I was there was 27 or so years ago and all I remembered was the photo we had of me and my brother and sister sitting on one of the stones, so I was super excited to go back!
The little fishing village of Kåseberga of the southern coast of Sweden. The stones is just a short 10 minute hike up the hill.
Germany and Poland is there somewhere across the sea.
All these years, I thought this was gravesite and a Viking king was buried here. But it turns out they don’t really know what this thing is all about. It’s 59 large boulders that are raised in the shape of a ship and it’s laid out so that the sun sets over the two main stones during the summer and winter solstice, suggesting it is a form of a calendar. It apparently also has some connections to the Stonehenge in England. They think this thing was made about year 600 CE.
What do you do when you are 6 years old and you see a bunch of large stones? You climb them!
I think my niece is obsessed with butts. But why not, butts are cool!
