The Weekend Roundup U


Starts with U:
Underground art in an Undisturbed Urban Underpass


Starts with U:
Up, Up, Upward!


Starts with U:
 Ultimate Ultramodern extravaganza!


Toms choice - Uniform & my favourite:
Uniform of the Carolean soldiers featured blue great coats with yellow cuffs. 
As headgear, most Caroleans wore tricorne hats or a special cap called a karpus. 

The Carolean death march - great drawings & history in the link! - was a terrible defeat against Russia during the Great Northern War that lasted  for 21 years (1700-1721). At that time Finland belonged to Sweden and even nowadays The Caroleans of Uusimaa / Helsinki region commemorate this terrific defeat. Performing is a hobby for these guys and I saw them at Viapori’s Kekri feast at the beginning of November. The pay their own outfits and even participate in Sweden in Carolean meetings.



My vocabulary starting with U seems a bit restricted :)
Happy weekend.
