At a fundraiser for Världens Barn (Children of the World) in 2015, Jocke Dahl in Skövde bought two of Daniel's former stuffed cuddly toys.
When Victoria and Daniel visit Skövde on Wednesday, Jocke's hope is that the prince will be able to see his old softie lamb again.
"I hope he has a nice memory with the cuddly toys", Jocke says.

Victoria and Daniel got a guided tour inside the school premises, they got to meet the E class on the individual program. The students were surprised when the royals suddenly stepped into their classroom where a lesson in Thing of the day was just going on. Among other things, they got to know where the word ice cream comes from and what it means, it stands for the French word for ice. Something that Måns knew and told Victoria.
The last time the Duchess and Duke of Västergötland visited the county was in connection with Alingsås' 400th anniversary in September 2019. The planned county visits have been postponed. According to the court, the ambition has been to make the visits in order to get a picture of how the pandemic struck and what it led to.
Victoria and Daniel met with representatives of Skaraborg Hospital about the current spread of infection and the pandemic work, at the upper secondary special school in Kavelbro there were conversations with students and educators. The lunch was taken from the association Ätbart, which informed about their activities, they distribute food bags to the needy through the Pentecostal Church.
At a visit to the Gothenburg Opera they talked about how cultural life in the county was affected by the pandemic and visited also Assar Industrial Innovation Arena, part of Skövde Science Park.
But perhaps Victoria and Daniel appreciated the most the visit to Kavelbro. One thing is for sure, student Kim Jansson will never forget this day. She asked Daniel if he would like to ride with her and Daniel said yes. Kim told the prince to put on his helmet. It was a quick ride on the schoolyard in a specially built tandem bicycle and afterwards Daniel had to help Kim get rid of her helmet. Not everyone has been assisted by a prince.
When Daniel thanked for the ride, Kim ran away:
- I did it. I did it!
She received many high fives from both teachers and staff. And applause. She told it wasn't nervous at all, it was fun.

The original plan was that Victoria and Daniel make their county visit to Västra Götaland County in Gothenburg on the city's 400th anniversary on 4 June. But the County Administrative Board still wanted to pay attention to other parts of the county and asked Conny Brännberg, Chair of the Municipal Assembly in Skövde, if it would be possible for Victoria and Daniel to make a stop on the way to Gothenburg.
- I was asked if I could help and heard the four areas that the Crown Princess couple wanted to visit: education, industry and business, culture and healthcare.
The idea was that Skövde would be responsible for one of the program items. Brännberg thought that Skövde can offer everything and submitted a complete proposal for a program to the County Administrative Board. He had contacted Skaraborg Hospital, the Gothenburg Opera, Kavelbro upper secondary special school, Ätbart and Assar Industrial Innovation Arena, which all gladly received the Crown Princess couple. The proposal went on to the court, which approved it.
- The most fun was the visit to Ätbart, which takes care of food waste. There, they offered the Crown Princess food that cannot be sold.
Brännberg tells that the host of the visit, governor Anders Danielsson is careful to show the whole county, he has expressed this with his county dinners where he invites everyday heroes.
As the Chair of the Municipal Assembly, Brännberg also was part of receiving Victoria and Daniel at the train station, he thought it was fun. It was the second time he met Victoria there. In 2001 he received with the governor there the King, Queen and Victoria to Skövde municipality's 600th anniversary on National Day.

The Crown Princess' tribute to Skövde - "You are fantastic"
The Upper Secondary Special School at Kavelbro without a doubt became the most joyful visit during the day. When Victoria and Daniel arrived at the school, they were greeted by a large expectant crowd of students who hosted the visit to the school.
- My commitment to the disabled has always been there, it is an important issue for us. I think it is extremely important that everyone has the same rights and lives an active life. And some have other conditions and need help and support and I think it is important that we take care of each other. So this visit has been very nice, Victoria said.
- You are fantastic!, Victoria said to the students when they were treated with a musical number.
- It has been a super successful day and it has been fun to be here. To be able to come out like this and meet people is fantastic. And being able to ride a bike with her at school was great fun, Daniel said.
Victoria said that it was a very broad program, everything from the hospital to the upper secondary special school. It was a very rewarding visit and a very good day.

The streets echoed empty when Victoria and Daniel visited Skövde on Wednesday.
Mikael Appelqvist, program coordinator at the county administrative board, tells that to avoid crowds, they had chosen not to disseminate information about the visit in advance. The risk of infection was behind the decision, and the pandemic was also the theme for the day.
Appelqvist tells that Victoria and Daniel ppreciated the visit, it has been fantastically nice. They are happy and responsive and seem very interested.

Victoria and Daniel came to Skaraborg Hospital to draw attention to local efforts in the wake of the pandemic.
They had the opportunity to talk to nurses and doctors who have worked on the front lines during the ongoing pandemic. They showed great interest and had many questions about what it was like to work in pandemic care. The stories of how patients said goodbye to their relatives on the phone and of the patients who recovered, how they had to work for a long time from being put to sleep at Intensive Care Unit to being allowed to leave the hospital and once again be able to hug their children touched them deeply.
Before Victoria and Daniel went on to the afternoon's visit, they also took the opportunity to greet the staff who had come out to get a glimpse of them.

"Very fun to get to have H.R.H Crown Princess and H.R.H Prince Daniel visiting church today as part of their visit to Skövde. Here, @atbart.sverige's fantastic work was presented to reduce food waste and food aid where food is distributed through our church. In our foyer where the food distribution takes place, a lunch cooked at food waste was served by @restaurang_hallbar and then there was a program in the church hall from Gothenburg Opera and a short speech from our pastor @simon_holst. When the Crown Princess couple left, they expressed their great gratitude and Prince Daniel said to Simon "I understand that people like it here!" … Together we build a church that people want to become a part of!"

The Crown Princess couple visited ASSAR
A visit was made to the ASSAR Industrial Innovation Arena to discuss how the business community was affected during the pandemic.
The talks were followed by a tour and a demonstration of the smart robots that can help people and collaborate to solve problems and perform tasks. At the demonstrator IRMA (Intelligent Reconfigurable Manufacturing), the Crown Princess couple met Anna Syberfeldt, professor of production technology at the University of Skövde, as well as research assistant Marcus Gottschlish and doctoral student My Andersson.
The last item on the program during the visit to ASSAR was Material ConneXion Skövde. There Christian Bergman gave a presentation about advanced, innovative and sustainable materials and manufacturing techniques. He presented a material made from recycled plastic gloves and a coating that kills viruses to 90 percent, which is interesting from a covid-19 perspective.

We had a royal visit today! Our Crown princess ‐ the future queen of Sweden – and her husband Prince Daniel spent the day in Skövde! Of all places, they chose to come to us! Sooo pawsome! I wish they would had told me sooner though, then we would had been dressed up for the occasion (where's the tuxedos when we need them?!)

"The royal family has never been something that interested me very much. But to see the total joy in the eyes of the elderly was amazingly nice! Thank you Victoria, for stopping by and talking for a few minutes was the highlight of the year for many!"

The Crown Princess couple's visit to the upper secondary special school in Skövde
There was tense anticipation among the students. Once in place, the Crown Princess and the Prince could take part in the students' story about how the year has been and how the pandemic has meant that everything has not been as it usually is.
- The Crown Princess couple were really genuinely interested in the students' learning and learning environment. Joy and warmth characterized the entire visit. The Crown Princess and Prince Daniel's wonderful treatment and attitude opened up for many nice meetings and conversations with students and staff, it was a much appreciated visit by all of us, says principal Caroline Hägglund.

GöteborgsOperan at their Facebook about meeting Victoria and Daniel on their visit to Västra Götaland 25th August:
"Some pictures from yesterday when Crown Princess couple Victoria and Daniel visited Skövde! During the day, together with the municipal council chairman Conny Brännberg, they visited among other things Skövde Pentecostal Assembly where GothenburgOperan's CEO, Christina Björklund and Henning Ruhe (Artistic Manager, Opera / Drama) presented our regional activities and how the cultural life in the city was affected during the pandemic. In addition, they were offered a dancepiece with Micol Mantini and Katarina Giotas performed Carmen's Habanera."

Photo gallery of the visit to Ätbart and Pentecostal church
Skövde's Pentecostal church is part of the regional work "Mathjälpen", which conveys leftover food from grocery stores and restaurants to people in need. Association Ätbart takes care of the collection of the food that would otherwise have been thrown away. Victoria and Daniel had a lunch made from leftover food, in the church's foyer where the food distribution takes place two evenings a week. In addition to Mathjälpen, they were told about the parish's activities in general.
Pastor Simon Holst says that you notice that Victoria and Daniel have a big heart for children, young people and the vulnerable. They were affected, especially from this with the food distribution. He could also tell about his Christian faith because Daniel asked how he got into this course. The pastor says that Victoria and Daniel's visit is a great encouragement for everyone who works and fights in the congregation, not least with the food distribution. It will be a recognition for the church and he thinks it helps to create a good reputation in the city. When Victoria and Daniel were leaving and Daniel said "I understand that people thrive here", it was a very encouraging assessment.

Victoria and Daniel have continued the digital meetings with the municipalities after the summer holiday.

Thursday 26 August
They had a meeting with Leif Pettersson, Chair of the Executive Committee of Ludvika Municipality.
They talked about how the pandemic has affected the municipality's business life, what the supply of skills looks like, housing construction and what Ludvika municipality is doing to create good opportunities for young people to want to stay or move back. Victoria and Daniel asked initiated questions.
- It was a successful conversation and it really felt like they got involved, says Leif Pettersson.

The second meeting Victoria and Daniel had with Chair of the Executive Committee Stefan Carlsson and municipal manager Magnus Nilsson from Svenljunga Municipality.
They talked about the pandemic, Carlsson and Nilsson told about the incredible strength of the local community's collaborative power, residents who took great responsibility from the beginning, companies that restructured their production and helped to produce protective materials when there was a shortage.
Victoria and Daniel were also interested in beach protection and housing construction in a location close to the beach, the companies in the municipality and what unemployment looks like. They talked also about telework and how this has changed the view of living in the city or in the country. Victoria and Daniel asked many questions, the men felt that the time was almost not enough, that the conversation was uncomplicated and very pleasant. Both really appreciate that Victoria and Daniel were so knowledgeable, well-read and above all interested.

The third meeting Victoria and Daniel had with Henrik Thunes, Chair of the Executive Committee of Sollentuna Municipality.
The theme of the meeting was current societal issues in the municipality. Thunes tells that they looked back at how the municipality handled the crisis during the pandemic year 2020 and also how the situation looks now. They talked also about the security-creating work where the municipality and the police work together with the goal that Sollentuna will have no vulnerable areas by 2030, and the climate and environmental work with the establishment of a climate committee.

The fourth meeting Victoria and Daniel had with municipal councilor Lena Svahn from Ljusdal Municipality.
Svahn told that despite the pandemic, good development has taken place in Ljusdal. They have introduced a new governance model and implemented work towards Agenda 2030. The hospitality industry is doing well. Among other things, bicycle tourism has expanded greatly in the last two years. Järvsö is one of big names in the hospitality industry and brings income to the municipality, which Victoria and Daniel pointed out, but Svahn said that it is important that expansion takes place with reflection. They don't want to create a new Åre but keep the culture, spirit and soul that exists in the place with the small-scale, locally grown and sustainable thinking. Daniel said that he visited Camp Järvsö in the Generation Pep context and got a good impression of the facility.
Victoria and Daniel wondered what is Ljusdal's biggest challenge. The supply of skills is one of the municipality's biggest challenges and should be one of the major overall goals that all administrations must work with.

Friday 27 August
Victoria and Daniel had a meeting with municipal councilor Marino Wallsten and municipal manager Karolina Berglund from Fagersta Municipality.
It was a good conversation about Fagersta, about the future development and opportunities as well as the challenges they face.
- It is fantastic to be able to meet in this way and I am impressed with how well the Crown Princess couple has control over Fagersta. I am very grateful for the commitment they show, says Marino Wallsten.

The second meeting Victoria and Daniel had with Mikael Thalin, Chair of the Executive Committee of Orsa Municality.
Besides about the pandemic, they talked about the new route of the E45 and the construction of new special housing, Orsa's largest investment of all time over SEK 300 million. A new housing is planned close to the beach, Lövastrand in southern Orsa, about 100 homes in various forms of housing.
Victoria and Daniel were also interested in how the companies coped with the pandemic and how the municipality works with security issues and mental illness. Orsa has done well, because it is a large visitor destination. The municipality works actively with security-creating measures via the National Council for Crime Prevention BRÅ, they do regular situation analyzes and have good help from the police. They have a youth strategist who works with youth issues and mental illness.
- It was an important and good conversation. It is always nice that the royal family as a central player pays attention to Orsa, says Mikael Thalin.

The third meeting Victoria and Daniel had with Daniel Filipsson, Chair of the Executive Committee of Alingsås Municipality.
- It was a very nice conversation. The Crown Princess couple still had our fantastic 400th anniversary fresh in their minds, and talked about the nice welcome and how it seemed that the Alingsås people left their houses to stop along their walking route through the city when they visited us, says Filipsson.
About Covid-19, Filipsson told that he is worried that the spread of infection is now rising again. Victoria and Daniel shared the concerns and they agreed on the importance of getting as many people vaccinated as possible. They talked also about people moving from big city to small town and countryside to fulfill the dream of their own house and lawn, and what that trend means for Alingsås.

Digital meetings with the municipalities continued yesterday.

The first meeting Victoria and Daniel had with Fredrik Kjos, Chair of the Executive Committee of Upplands-Bro Municipality.
Kjos spoke about the municipality's development and the strategic work for a sustainable and attractive business climate, about the long-term investment in the Transformation Bro, where social sustainability is in focus. Victoria and Daniel thought this was very interesting.
- It was a rewarding conversation. I am happy to have shared my vision of an even more attractive, safer and sustainable Upplands-Bro where the focus is on raising the quality of everything we do with continued order, also in the economy, says Kjos.

The second meeting Victoria and Daniel had with Catrin Hulmarker, Chair of the Executive Committee of Hjo Municipality.
They talked a lot about that things are going very well for Hjo right now. They need to expand their service with, for example, a new school but also continue to renovate the schools. They talked about the municipality's skills supply, the rich business community and Hjo as a place to live with a high quality of life and great measures of security.
They talked also about that Beach Protection Act fails in areas like ours where there are plenty of areas close to the lake that Hjo wants to make accessible to more people.
- It feels good to have this moment with the Crown Princess couple and to be able to give them a picture of what it looks like with us now that they do not have the same opportunities to visit us as before, Catrin Hulmarker concludes.

Victoria and Daniel have continued the digital meetings with the municipalities.

Friday 10 September
The first meeting Victoria and Daniel had with Adam Johansson, the Chair of the Executive Committee of Falköping Municipality. Johansson tells that they talked a lot about Falköping municipality and what are the biggest issues right now. Victoria and Daniel asked about the current issues, how things have gone with Covid-19, how it is with association life and the hospitality industry. Johansson says that it feels like they had time to cover many things.
Victoria and Daniel were most curious about the business community in general and the hospitality industry. Johansson highlighted the dancing cranes and Lake Hornborga. Victoria and Daniel were well acquainted with the area when they actually have hiked the trail between Varnhem and Lake Hornborga and described it as incredibly beautiful.
Johansson knows that Daniel is very passionate about association life and he told about the youth championships in Orienteering which will be in Falköping next week. Johansson thinks it is a very nice initiative that they digitally visit all municipalities. It is a strength with the whole royal family that there is such a great commitment.

Plogell pointed out that building a foundation for a long-term planning of both housing, service and local business is crucial.
The conversation was very relaxed and ended with an invitation, Plogell offered them a coffee because they have the world's best tap water. Daniel thought it was a good combo.

Ale Municipality published the news about the meeting only today at its website.
Berglund highlighted the municipality's staff who have made huge contributions, they are the ones who have been the heroes during the pandemic. Victoria and Daniel were particularly curious about how Ale, despite the challenges, emerged from the pandemic, about the fighting spirit in the municipality.
Berglund also highlighted the challenges the municipality is facing. Not least when it comes to mental illness among children and young people, an area that Victoria and Daniel are passionate about.

The second meeting Victoria and Daniel had with municipal councilor Lars Isacsson from Avesta Municipality.
Regarding immigration Lars Isacsson made a comparison with the labor immigration that took place during the 50s and 60s, mainly from Finland, Austria and Italy. Then as now, it is the municipality's task to tackle the problems, to see opportunities and be positive, Isacsson said, and Victoria and Daniel appreciated this.
Victoria and Daniel also received information about the upcoming national conference on the future of the basic industry, Avesta talks, and Isacsson also emphasized the faith in the future in the municipality. Victoria and Daniel were interested in Krylbo, its history and development. They showed great interest in Isacsson's story of Krylbo as a hub and white-collar society, the decline caused by unscrupulous property owners and the new, budding pride and thus the establishment, which on September 25 is crowned in the form of Krylbo Day. Victoria and Daniel sent a greeting to the people of Krylbo, which Isacsson announces at Krylbo Day.
The meeting lasted less than half an hour. Isacsson said that the conversation with Victoria and Daniel was very pleasant, they were genuinely interested in and aware of Avesta municipality.

Victoria and Daniel have continued the digital meetings with the municipalities.
On 17th September they had third municipality meeting with representatives of Tidaholm Municipality, but so far the municipality hasn't published any information about the meeting.

Today Victoria and Daniel were at the library of Haga Palace.
Victoria and Daniel had a meeting with the Chair of the Executive Committee Lars Gezelius and municipal director Anna Cederqvist from Vara Municipality.
Gezelius says that he appreciates that Victoria and Daniel take the time to visit Sweden's 290 municipalities. Victoria and Daniel were very nice, curious and well-educated in Vara municipality. Of course they talked about the pandemic and all the challenges it has meant to Vara. They discussed also about the municipality's population development and growth, and Gezelius told that the municipality has grown in terms of population and they continue to work with housing construction and housing supply.
Victoria, the Duchess of Västergötland, visited Vara 18 years ago and inaugurated the Vara Concert Hall. Now she received an update on how the area has now developed into an educational and cultural cluster with, among other things, new construction of the stage room Sparbanken Blackbox. Anna Cederqvist says that Victoria congratulated them on the investment that turned out so well. They hope that Victoria and Daniel will have reason to visit Vara again soon, physically.

Today, Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel visited us to take part in our work during the covid-19 pandemic. Among other things, they got to see how health care has been affected and what the infection situation looks like.
Another effect of the pandemic presented to the Crown Princess couple is that the development of digital care meetings has been accelerated. Måns Lööf, care developer, told what it meant in child psychiatry to be able to use digital meetings. Also involved and told was William, 10 years old, who raised the app Hipr where children and young people with ADHD themselves can report to the care how they feel without making physical visits. This has led to more children and young people with ADHD being more involved in their care.

At this project children, young people and guardians in child and family health, youth clinics and child and adolescent psychiatry receive cohesive care, which has proved particularly important in a time of unrest.
Victoria and Daniel met young patient William, he showed how he uses an app in his everyday life to record heart rate and blood pressure, fill in the effect of medication, report any side effects and communicate with healthcare professionals. The app is one of Region Gävleborg's first digital initiatives aimed at children and young people.
After lunch Victoria and Daniel visited the University of Gävle. Vice-Chancellor Lars Bengtsson told about what the university has learned from the pandemic. Victoria and Daniel met researchers to take part in what the research says about teleworking and how the future can apply to teleworking and hybrid work when many have learned to work from home.

They had a tour at the factory and got information about how Wetterlings has been positively affected by the pandemic. Due to the increased interest in nature and outdoor life, the ax factory's production has grown over the past year.

A couple of short videos from the visit, Victoria and Daniel were interviewed by SVT.
Seeing the pictures from the floods in Gävle a month ago was unreal, said Victoria.
- It is an example that we must start thinking about the climate, Victoria said to SVT Gävleborg.
- It is sad to see so many personal tragedies. It hit society as a whole, but also the individual, Daniel said.

More digital meetings with the municipalities
20th September
The second meeting of the day Victoria and Daniel had with Linda-Marie Anttila, the Chair of the Executive Committee of Hofors Municipality.
- A very pleasant conversation with the Crown Princess couple who were genuinely interested and well-informed about Hofors municipality, Anttila says.
Of course they discussed about that Daniel played hockey in Hofors in the 90s. Daniel told that he has a heart for the municipality and greeted several old friends. He said that he feels a youth nostalgia when he goes through Hofors and sees the ice rink. Victoria and Daniel congratulated the girls who won Swedish Championship gold in disc golf last week. Both showed great interest in Hofors municipality and they talked also about the newly built preschool and the upcoming new nursing home as well as the association life and business, about Ovako and Enerco, and about the projects Edsken Strand and Sustainable school meals.

The third meeting Victoria and Daniel had with Marie Centerwall, the Chair of the Executive Committee of Bollnäs Municipality. She is happy about the Crown Princess couple's great interest.
- The Crown Princess couple is well acquainted with Bollnäs (the Westling summer house is in Acktjära in Bollnäs) and we also had the opportunity to talk about the municipality's work with children and young people and integration issues, where the successful work of associations, Fritidsbanken and Föreningsalliansen was highlighted.
They talked about business development, the restaurant and hospitality industries are among the industries that had a particularly difficult situation during the pandemic, at the same time as the hospitality industry in Hälsingland is still on the rise. Other issues that came up during the meeting were the development of the old SJ area and housing construction in Bollnäs.

The fifth meeting Victoria and Daniel had with Kristian Vramsten, the Chair of the Executive Committee of the City of Mölndal.
"I think it feels very fun that they want to meet us. The Crown Princess couple were very interested in what characterizes us here in Mölndal and we had an interesting discussion about what challenges we see in the future", says Kristian Vramsten.
They discussed about many topics. Vramsten told about the growing business community where the health tech sector has a significant role in the future. There was talk of the new railway stop, that the municipality has reached 70,000 inhabitants and how associations, businesses and residents have been affected by the pandemic. Vramsten welcomed Victoria and Daniel to next year's anniversary celebration.

Mölndals-Posten newspaper interviewed Vramsten. He says he felt that the meeting was positive and that Victoria and Daniel had a good time. He started by saying that it is nice that they take the initiative to call to all the municipalities and he thinks it is very important that they hear how it is in the municipalities. Vramsten tells that Victoria and Daniel were curious and despite the fact that he was nervous beforehand, it was as if blown away during the conversation. He had prepared himself to be nervous but he wasn't. He had practiced naming them Your Royal Highnesses and then consistently Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel and he didn't say wrong once. Vramsten said that he knows that they have been invited to the 100th anniversary next year and that he welcomed them, and then he saw that Victoria looked in her calendar. It was very nice.

I've been trying to find information about all Victoria and Daniel's meetings with the municipalities. Today I found a photo of the meeting on 29th April with Cecilia Burenby, the Chair of the Executive Committee of Mjölby Municipality, at the Municipality's Facebook. It was the eight meeting on that day. They talked about, among other things, how to support business and associations in the crisis, but also that the municipality is growing and the plans for the Experience Center for food. "It was a very nice meeting", says Cecilia.
