Rödluvan
in the snow Part 37


 Christmas 1, 2010
 
This picture is taken 2010-01-02.  It's the tree for Christmas 2009 Then we had a lot of snow.
I took this picture  2010-11-27.  This year we got a lot of snow again.

The stripes on the picture is snow. It was snowing so much and a hard wind was blowing when I took this picture.
I will begin to tell about the time before Christmas. This date. 2010-11-11. En artist had made a chair of ice beside the Glass House. They had put a reindeer skin on the chair.
This picture of the Glass House in town is taken 2010-10-29. Then there was no snow.  I need to tell what the Glass house is. This is a nice new building made of glass. They build on the market place. The house is used for events and for showing of all kind of activities. It's a kind of community centre.
2010-11-12. We got snow. The roof of the shops had so much snow. Then the men had to take away the snow from the roofs. And watch that not people should go there. It's dangerous to get heavy icy snow on your head.
2010-11-12. This is the Store Maxi, a store at the outskirts of town. It takes one hour by bus to come there. These are Santa hats. If you push the bottom you can hear a rock and roll Christmas song and the top of the hat is waving up and down. I woman, and child and I were laughing out loudly at that crazy thing. LOL :-D
2010-11-15. Electric advent candles in an electric outfitter's shop.

2010-11-16. We had Napolitan soup and a hot sandwisch. It was cold that day and good with soup.
2010-11-16. Cat tea cosy.  I was laughing when I saw this tea warmer :-)  I took the picture in the shop.
2010-11-16. A neighbour rang on my door bell that she saw a gorgoeu sunset from her apartment. She lives on the fifth floor. I rushed up with my camera, but the most beauty was already gone after a few minutes.
2010-11-16. I took a picture of our street too. You can see a view over the town from her balcony.
2010-11-16. There are small houses cross the street.
2010-11-17. We went to a lunch restaurant named Invito and had  baked fish. It was delicious.

2010-11-18. I met the artist who also made the ice chair. He was working on an ice sculpture named "Ice love".
2010-11-18. He should make it after this little sculpture.
2010-11-18. The little sculpture is real sweet. Here it is on a little table of ice so the artist can look how to make a big one..
2010-11-18. A school had about special languages in the Glass House. In Sweden you can learn German and English. But in the school you also could learn Spanish and French. Then they had this beautiful Spanish flag on a table.

Rödluvan and the light festival 2010
The theme for this was "Love"
2010-11-22. The Ice love sculpture was beautiful in blue.
2010-11-22. It changed colour from blue to green.
2010-11-22. It went purple too.
2010-11-22. I came to a park. In summer there use to be a fountain and flowers. They had build an open-air dance floor and a ball room lamp in top. And they played music. The music made me happy and I was dancing through the park.
2010-11-22. I went to the river. Here I had been so much in summer. Now the river was frozen and looked cold. But they had made red and purple lights on the other side of the river.

2010-11-22. More light on the other side of the river. I fedlt sad that the river was frozen.

Something sad happened. Rödluvan had been working so hard for a thing.  But her project was not accepted and appreciated. All the work was in vain. But worse was the cold and nonchalance I got. It was as cold and as numb as on this picture.

I should have needed the sun and the peaceful bleu water in the river.
2010-11-22. I went back to the dancing floor. Then the music played. "Purple rain". I started crying. The purple rain were my tears,   glistening in the purple light.
2010-11-22. I went back to the centre of town and met my friends the polar bears again. The bears made me smile again. The bear said to me. "Look somebody gave me a glass of water". Then I was laugning again and I felt better. I have all king of friends who can make me happy.
22010-11-22. There was light art in a telephone cubicle. And you could listen on telephone. Then I heard some nice words about love. I really needed words of love.
2010-11-22.  Some lights made hearts on the ground in the snow.
2010-11-22.Even though it was cold, there were warming hearts of love.
2010-11-22. This did not belong to the light festival. But the house had nice lights.

2010-11-25. A little strange house with light art. Also on this place there is a fountain in summer.
2010-11-25. Sharp light through the window. And a big fingerprint on the wall. Maybe a giant has put his fingerprint there. Who knows.

It was straining to go in the deep snow. I kept inside today and hibernated. But I was longing for more winter- and Christmas adventures.
