In the second half of the Batt-Cave from Sweden where the days are long and full of light, Tanya, Pete and Batt-lamb share  a story from Siberia about how hare brought light to a very dark world - a story for those experiencing the southern mid winter. Pete also shares a small refrain from a Swedish 70's classic all about summer and picking smöltron (wild strawberries) that was written by Mats Paulson. This song was taught to us by two Swedish women whom we met on our travels  that we shared the straweberries we found in the forest with.
