  Our Rotary presentations have always included a bit of information about Bishop Hill, Illinois, the location that many Swedes settled in 1846, so it was interesting to visit the Emigrant Museum and learn the Swedish perspective about this event which sparked a mass migration of Swedes to the United States.
  We ate lunch at the Alfta Rehab Center where we were given information about and a tour of this private healthcare company.  This was our last activity in Alfta as we were transported to Falun in Dalarna County.
The evening was an adventure in the wilderness as we prepared a tent to eat under and fires to keep us warm.  We enjoyed much good food and great company before we "roughed it" for the evening.
