Recordist's notes

The ending stop of the soundwalk at the rather busy (for being a small town) street crossing of Storgatan and Kungsgatan. Rain is still present which can be heard very well in the wheels in water sounds. When listening here we realized there is a mismatch on one of the manhole covers in the street there so when cars are passing over it, it makes a heavy metal sound which brings a special aural profile to this place (here it is only heard once or twice though).
