Today I'm going to write about something different from the usual pretty, girly stuff -
cars! One hour north of Stockholm lies a very picturesque, old town called Norrtälje. Every summer the last thirty-five years an event called "
American Car Show" has been taking place in the "Society Park" here. People come from all over the world to show off their old, amazing cars, or to just look at all these chromed vehicles, and dream...
This Saturday was the day for this year's show, and the weather was perfect for strolling around in the park - which is situated right beside the water. The visitors that didn't arrive by land, arrived by water, as you could see from the amount of boats at the docks.
From the stage different bands played old school rock'n'roll all day long! While writing this I actually remember performing on that stage sometime a long time ago...
And then we come to the cars! There were so many!
This was one of my favorites. It reminds me of the Addams Family's car!
Of course I had to be photographed with the sexiest car I could find! This is "Miss Polly" - an Austin 7 from 1933. She can reach the incredible speed of 75km/h (46m/h), so hold on to your hats ladies and gentlemen!
Here is what she looks like on the inside...
...and her highly modern motor!
If I could have chosen one car though, this would have been it! The Excalibur!
The magnificent front!
When I went through these pictures I discovered I had managed not only to capture myself in this lantern-self portrait, but also my dad!
My sister made use of the outside-gym in the park to work on her surfer-balance!
Not sure this cat was so happy...
Not the best car, but certainly the best plate!
I saw so many cars I want this day! Right now I just feel like putting on a pretty dress and a nice pair of shades, tune into an old time radio channel, and go cruzin' in my very own chromed beast!...If I had one...
