Since I´m not that experienced in blogging and linking them I thought it best to have it ready by now. I will be away a few days when the festival starts. You have my adress! And thanks again for a fantastic event, it will be much fun to see everybody.<br />Kindly<br />Kronmakaren i SwedenKronmakarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15162559943681153722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524087774719465267.post-81221344810512362982010-09-15T16:20:01.759-05:002010-09-15T16:20:01.759-05:00Atlanta,
