THE CRAYFISH TRADITION

The water has warmed up and its a great time to be on or by the sea. It is also crayfish season in the Nordic area and a good reason for celebration. You don't just eat these lobster-like creatures...you make a ritual of it.


Arriving to the beautiful island of Espskär...



...together with the young generation, that did an excellent job serving and singing




Finns and Norwegians



Ready to sing and enjoy


All set up for a traditional crayfish party




Christian and me - Long term friendship and working relations




Even at a party my deputy managing director
is working via his iPhone
