Our second day in Sweden but still no Swedish moose! What a disappointment!

We started this morning at the city square in Örnsköldsvik. After our presentation we received from the city representative one of the best possible gifts on the World Harmony Run - towels!

Some local runners guided us out of the city and we spent another day in most beautiful nature, running on lonely roads.

As usual, we had a food-break combined with swimming in the early afternoon. This time we ended up in a river in disguise - the water temperature gave it away! But after running all day in the heat, a cool swim was highly welcome.

As we reached Solleftea, a group of runners and the local organiser welcomed us at the city limits. They brought flags for all the nationalities represented in our team and we were a very colourful group as we reached the city square.

Two city representatives received us and two girls, one singing and one on the keyboard, performed really well.
