Day 7: The Great River Road

Today we have driven on the "Great River Road", which is a scenic route along the Mississippi River. And suddenly the landscape looked like Skåne (the southern part of Sweden where we live)! We just had to visit both Lund (the name of the town we live in) and Stockholm (Capital of Sweden) on the way... Stockholm (WI) is a really cute little town that was founded by some Swedes in 1860. Lund (WI) is about four houses, look at the photo and you understand... We also came across Laura Ingalls birth home, just outside Lund. The kids have of course never watched "The little house on the prairie", so they have no idea of where they have been. Finally, we ended up in Forest Lake, just north of Minneapolis. Time for some sightseeing in Swedish country...
