Most of the village, the museum and other things around this place stays all year around. (Read my earlier post about the museum and Glad of Gillberga here>>)
Here is an explosion of photos from this event.

Many of the persons, vikings, have been living here several weeks, some of them the whole summer to fix everything.

The runestone, made by hand. They laid the last hand on it at saturday.
If you break the law, then this is the punishment. Beeing stuck in this thing...
Last, but not least, there where a big field filled with old games. The kids loved it!
There were so much more. Tournaments and other activities... I can't show you all of it, I did'nt even see all of it myself. =)

Seen on My World Tuesday
I was so excited when I saw your pictures-I love to go to events like this and would love to dress up and learn about the vikings. To live out there a few weeks would be so fun. Thanks for letting me see the event thru pictures.
