After the lunch they arrived to IKSU, where they got a guided tour and thereafter visited the Sports Medicine Laboratory. The reporter says that they made a lot of questions at the laboratory, it is obvious that they were very interested in what they were told.

Benjamin, 14, snapped really royal selfie
There are selfies. And there are royal selfies.
- Victoria and Daniel. Biggest you can get, laughs Benjamin Dahlberg, who managed to convince the Crown Princess Couple to selfies during their visit to Umeå.
Benjamin Dahlberg, 14, goes on Hanna School and in the morning they heard that Victoria and Daniel were coming near the school. Benjamin and his two buddies Jonathan Larsson, 15, and Christopher Svedin, 15, took the chance on their break to meet the royals.
After Victoria and Daniel had been in the sculpture park they greeted the people. Benjamin, Jonathan and Christopher stood patiently and waited, and when Victoria came they took their chance:
- I asked if it was okay to take a picture with her. She just laughed. Even Daniel thought it was fun, says Jonathan.
The result was that all three got the selfie that they had previously only dreamed of:
- Yes, it is heavy, says Jonathan. Glad they were so nice.
Who was the nicest?
- Both of them. Incredibly kind and took the time.
The photos with themselves and the royals went almost immediately to friends and family.
- There will be some who will be pretty jealous. It's not very often Victoria and Daniel are in Umeå and you get a chance like this, said all three, happy with a memory for life.
