^^ Well, that second photo shows what's called a Spirit Catcher. Not sure if it's for the good ones...or the bad ones. EDIT to add: Maybe that's what it's name might be, hmm? -

Scandi Tour SOUVENIRS! Every tour I do, brings home several 'additions' to the household. I rarely go for stuff that serves no purpose, other than to sit on a table of a shelf somewhere. Most souvenirs I get, I try to get useful ones, like coffee mugs, a towel, candy (yum), that sort of stuff. But I do pick up from time to time, things that just beg to be bought. Yeah, I'm that easy, heh. Here's some of what i picked up along the way... My t-shirts. And we got a free one at Djurs Sommerland, too! There's also a couple of tour shirts there, one from Sarkanniemi (Birds Land), one from Tivoli, one from Tusenfryd... and Helix. (o: This was my favourite (bought) shirt on the tour. And 1883 is the year Grona Lund opened! Mugs, drink cups, and even bottles figure into my usual assortment of things to bring home. Close up on the drink containers, including my first (at that time) Coke "Name" bottles. Hadn't seen them until this tour. Now, they're everywhere, including at home. Stuff to (mostly) eat, including lots of candy and leftover goody bag treats. I bought this at Tysenfryd, then gave it to a friend on her musical show's opening night. So - much - marshmallow! When I fist saw these (at Djurs Sommerland) I laughed out loud. And bought them of course! And after having both, the sweeter liquorice was more to my liking than the salty. Some pins, a couple of fridge magnets, a few toys. And one music CD from Farup Sommerland. Wait. What's that glowing in there?... Personal products, like soap, a towel from Skara Sommerland, even a Liseberg-branded pack of wetnaps! -

^ I know! And I'm still trying to get over (not really) China two years ago, and last year in Japan. Unfortunately, most of my money did not come home with me. lol. But that was okay. And I stayed about the same weight-wise, until I got back home. Then, I lost some weight! Life goes on. -

Lol. Yeah, and they got Disneyland's opening year wrong, in the movie. Not to mention the Pirates didn't open until....1967? Continuity rant over. -

Before I "show and tell" such stuff as souvenirs and on-ride photos, he4re's a few photos I took, and then when I got back home, played around with the exposure on each shot, for an Arsty Fartsy Theme Park Photo. Here's how it went... In the International area of the Vancouver Airport. It "almost" looks like the diver has come right out of the aquarium, there. The pavement of Bakken. Daemonen at Tivoli Gardens. The Pagoda at Tivoli. Tivoli's Star Flyer. Disko, Bon Bon Land. Daron and Chris, Hansa Park. Piraten Load Station, Djurs Sommerland. Liseberg From a Distance. (on the ferry, coming into port) Grona Lund. Psychadelic me! (Grona Lund) In Flight, Power park. Ghost Light, Waslandia Park. Linnanmaki park. -
