Here we see the big brave hunter sneaking up on a reindeer for a pat.

More from Skansen

Skansen

It was a horrible day in Uppsala so we headed off to stockholm for the day. Here is Katie trying to pat the monkeys (not allowed!) Shortly after patting a snake and a big hairy spider! Most people were reluctant to touch the spider but Katie got told off for touching everything when you where only allowed to stroke the legs!
