PICTURES FROM SWEDEN - JULY 14, 2001

A note from Tina Book:

Dear Jerry and everybody else,
Today my mail is split into 4 parts.
We celebrated Midsummer Eve with herring, sour cream, chives, onion and potatoes. Some people tried snaps and learned a Swedish snaps-song.
Photos no. 1-6 were taken in Sven's garden. Then we have Barbie's pictures, no. 7, Aina and Sigurd are properly dressed for Midsummer Eve. No. 8 is table decoration. No. 13-14, Cindy is very interested in the fabrics and she and her sisters are planning to make one dress each. No. 15, I am cutting the chocolate cake with raspberry and whipped cream, for those who have some difficulty. No. 18, Barbie and JoAnn are holding the Midsummer pole.
Best regards from all of us,
Tina
