Lekplats

Lekplats
Swedish word of the day. Lekplats. New playground under construction at the park in Tungelsta. Looks like an old Volvo "rundnos" truck from the 1930s in there! A century ago, (give or take a few years), a man known locally as Cykel-Pelle lived in a house here. The old truck represents his business. You can also see a "torklada", representing the many laundry firms that operated here a century ago. And when it is all ready for the kids there will also be a building representing all the greenhouse nurseries from way back when.

A wonderful shot.

When my family took holiday in Sweden, they were really excited by the imaginative playgrounds you have. Much better than ours.

This looks like a much more imaginative playground than we have around here.
