We took a wonderful trip to the island Hamneskär to visit a beautiful 19th century lighthouse, which had recently been restored. Lars explained that the entire lighthouse was lifted on a giant crane and taken to Göteborg, where it was sandblasted and painted, then returned.
I will add text later. Here are photos. And a cool web site.

FULL DISCLOSURE: It was Viktor's idea to post a video of The Swedish Chef along with this one. How perfect that I found him making pancakes!

I could not resist making a short movie of Viktor as he made us some wonderful Swedish pancakes. These are wonderful with jam and sugar.
