For me,...Pre-digital times do seem a long time ago. For me, increased by the fact that since I got my first digital camera in 2006, I haven't travelled anywhere. I've taken more photos since then than I did in all my previous life; but without going further than 20 km from where I live!DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-35223231986548497692012-06-07T13:55:01.719+02:002012-06-07T13:55:01.719+02:00It's the top part of a lighthouse, standing ou...It's the top part of a lighthouse, standing outside the museum.DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-29242568991606526232012-06-07T13:52:25.585+02:002012-06-07T13:52:25.585+02:00It's much more common to name a place after a ...It's much more common to name a place after a person than the other way round. Gustafsberg at Uddevalla was named after the Swedish king Gustav III back in the 1700s. Gustav/Gustaf has been a common name in Sweden for many centuries - as well as a royal one. There are other places in Sweden called Gustavsberg too and one of them a well-known porcelain factory.DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-82487660777964294952012-06-07T12:34:50.985+02:002012-06-07T12:34:50.985+02:00Absolutely beautiful!!!!
