Swedish Barbie^® Doll

Hej (Hello)! I am Swedish Barbie doll and I want to welcome you to Sweden, a beautiful land filled with flowers, trees, and clear flowing water. I am wearing a traditional folk costume often worn for Midsummer in Lapland, the northernmost part of Sweden, just above the Arctic Circle. My colorful dress, with attached red apron and criss-cross flock vest, is just right for the customary dancing that takes place around the maypole, (a large wooden pole we decorate with green leaves, flowers and ribbons.) We always have fun dancing and playing games around the maypole. I hope you will come join me in Sweden real soon. Until then, Hejda (Goodbye)!
