22nd of August - Evening walk down town

Once we had settled in our respective cells, Mum & I went out for a walk down in Umeå.

Umeå has quite a large center, close to the Ume river which makes it particularly nice. People mostly use their bike to move about, and the bus service seems to have be comfortably frequent too. Car drivers systematically stop at pedestrian crossings, which means I will probably forget good habits such as checking both directions before crossing the road! A lot of shops, especially clothes (including H&M of course) as well as interior design and decoration stores.

Funnily, when were making our way home, there was an outside stage from which I recognised an Iron Maiden tune being performed. When we found the stage, there was Alexander's look-alike definitely rocking it with a good old Gibson guitar! Alex, you should have told us you were touring all around Europe!

So, are all Swedes blue-eyed blonds (to answer one of my preliminary questions)....?
