 Part 2. 2009-07-29
 
I was eating a delicious ice cream, strawberry, vanilla, on the deck of the restaurant. Ove had vanilla ice cream with liquorice.
This is the house that in former times was the first water power station in Umeå.
This is an old electric street lamp.
Inside one of the houses you could read and see all kind of things about water power. The rain comes and later the water is evaporating.
A water power worker, this is a doll.
Witchcraft, I can make two of myself :-)
No it's a big mirror. If you are standing on the side of the mirror,  and you are standing on the right way, you see ONE person. But the person is half left in real and half left in the mirror. If you not are standing right, you will of two.
A model of a wind power turbine.
Now it was time to go into the old water power station. A guide was showing everything. This is an old telephone.
Much electrical stuff. The guide in the background.

Now it was time to go to the guide. He should show the water power   sawmill. Here a sign bout it.

The guide opened the floodgate. Then the saw started sawing the log. He had to water the place there the saw was sawing otherwise the log was overheated and could begin to burn.
Here the saw is sawing the log.
And here it's sawing board.
Here you can see the water that makes the saw running.
The water is running.

On this stone is written that they wanted to save a bit of the flume so people could see how it was.

I was real fascinate of the water spoon. This was nice art.
