avoid E6 during 11 to 12 am
It looks like you'll have to choose another road then E6 from 17 August to new year between 11am and 12 am. Trafikverket(the traffic authority) blasts tunnels for the new västlänken(west link) railway. One way could be choose Alvsborgsbron instead. See google maps>>>>.

fish church
The third Friday in August we are allowed fishing Crawfish in Swedens lakes. This leads to a lot of crawfish parties everywhere. Most Suedes prefer to visit markets like fish church to get their seafood instead. You are actually able to buy imported, frosen crawfish all year long but this tradition with third friday in august is very strong in Sweden. The time for having a crawfish party. It starts from third friday in August and stops three weekends after this. This year the third friday in August is the 21:th. Other traditions among this parties is that you'll need a snaps to the seafood.The recipe for making the crawfish in order is to cook them with dill, a spoonfull of salt, maybe some lemonjuice and a sugarcube. Let them cook in about ten minutes. You'll see when they are ready on their colour. They are turning red when ready for eating.

ferry from sweden to denmark
The boarders are still closed from Sweden to Denmark. The strange thing is that the boarder are open the other way. Thousand of danes are crossing the boarder to Sweden every day. Swedes are also allowed to cross the boarder if they are working or got a relative in Denmark. The danish prime minister said last week that they will open the boarder for people from Norway and Germany the 15:th of June. But not for swedes. Read more about the restrictions on oresundsbron.com and politi.dk. Norway got another law or rule to accept. They are allowed to cross the boarder to Sweden but have to stay two weeks in quarantine after arriving back to Norway. There are a couple of norwegians that try crossing the boarder to get affordable tobacco, meat and chocolate. If the norwegian police reveals it they risk getting a 20000skr fee(about 200£).
