Last Saturday Tara and Joakim went to visit Caroline and Patrik in Gothenburg, and together we all went on a two-day excursion up the coast - to see the Gothenburg archipelago.
We started on Saturday by visiting Tanumshede and the World Heritage Museum in Vitlycke (homepage in English). Here we spent the morning and middle of the day studying rock carvings from the Bronze Age, some of the dating as far back as 1800 B.C. We also visited a few grave sites (big rocks piled up together as in picture above).
Carving above: Ceremonial war scene.
Carving above: Man with sword.
Carving above: Ceremonial death ritual ship, transporting the honored warriors on their final voyage to the kingdom of death.
