Den Europeiska Marknaden, Stortorget, Östersund

Here's another post about...markets! They're fun to write about and I figure they're more fun to read about than reading books about religious theorists (this is poorly phrased since many of them are atheists), rollerskiing in the pouring rain, or cleaning toilet-bowls. 

There's a market that travels around Europe like a circus, I guess. In any case, it's in Östersund this week at Stortorget. Here's the good part: they have cheese! 

Wheels of Parmeggiano & Pecorino Romano.

...And olives!

 ...& cheeseandsausage!

One cheese from this stand was aged for five years. That was funny to hear cause that means last time I was in Sweden, they were just putting into its waxy capsule. And now I'm gobbling it up.

 There were also vendors selling some pretty interesting crafts. David, a Pole from London, made effigies out of cast-iron and wine-bottles.

 You can tell vending in Sweden is hard work & sometimes you need a break. It just sucks when a camera-happy tourists decides to take a picture.
