Reindeer. Part 1.

2014-02-01. Today they had started with Umeå Culture Town 2014. That's why they had taken reindeer to Gammlia. This reindeer was curious when I came.
2014-02-01. But the reindeer did not come to me. It started to lie down.
2014-02-01. I was alone with the reindeer in the woods. There were no other people coming. Because the weather was very bad. Snow and very cold. The reindeer did not care about the weather. They have thick fur and are made to being in the cold.
We human are not made for the cold. But we can protect us. I'm well protected in my Arctic jacket.

This picture of me was taken January 2013

2014-02-01. One of the reindeer was eating.
2014-02-01. This is the reindeer Bob. I have met him before and also pet him and fed him with lichen.
