Valborg i Uppsala
We spent the last few days in Uppsala, hosted once again by our lovely friend Helena, who also hosted us two years ago in London.
When booking our trip, Helena advised us to visit during Valborg, the celebration of spring. Uppsala is pretty much the capital of Valborg. They have a whole range of festivities going on around it. On the day of Valborg, we first went to see the "Forsränningen", a boat race of boats made from wood and styrofoam by the students that then race the down the river. Since it was fairly cold and windy I would not have wanted to be one of the people in the actual boats...
