Sue's purchases and travels

In this shop this weekend I met a fellow who had participated in the Swedish TV show :The Great Swedish Adventure.(He is on the right with the baseball cap)  I had heard of the show before but someone told me it made Americans look foolish.  Perhaps it did early on but this person said it was a fabulous time.  I think he was there for six weeks.  He likened the show to a blend of The Amazing Race (without the crazy physical things) and who do you think you are.  It is really about finding your roots and experiencing Sweden.  To be considered you cannot have visited Sweden before.  It is also ideal if your relatives came to the US in the late 1800's to early 1900's.  If you can take time off and have the tiniest spirit of adventure you should apply.
