Thanks everyone

jennifert, it's hard to explain Midsummer without making a huge post, but it's one of the old traditional celebrations in Scandinavia (celebrated way before Christianity came). We eat herring, new potatoes, strawberries and other special foods. We raise a big pole (called a Maypole) and we dance around it and sign and stuff.

Here's a pic I found of some Maypole dancing:


As for what I meant by "going to a forest" is just that... We went and took a walk in a forest... You know, like Americas national parks but the difference is that we still have some normal forests around that hasn't been cut down. I took alot of nice photos from there, and when I get the time I will post them here and update my website with them (I'm currently trying to re-design my site with a photo section and stuff).
