A sunny day at Gällnö
There was very little wind today, so I went to one of my favourite places in the archipelago – Gällnö. We have spent a number of wonderful days and visits here in the past and again today was just wonderful – lots of sun and quiet – I love it.
Doing bugger all
I took a day off today and decided not to do any work (real or boat work). After I got up I went for a 2 hour walk. A bit frustrating as the route I went on, was predominantly on a road, so no nature and wild animals this time.…
Turbulent night and day
Well, as predicted the weather turned nasty and the front is marching through. It is sunny, cloudless but a very strong wind has been blowing for the last 24 hours. It is supposed to die down later this evening. For the next few days there is hardly any wind forecast.…

6 tries to anchor – no Swede was impressed
Today I made a fool of myself anchoring. I went to Lidö, which is about 10 miles east of Norrtälje. The weather is about to change and tomorrow the wind should come from the north, perfect for going to Finham to meet my Finnish friends. Since there is a 3…
Farewell Norrtälje and Abigail
I said my farewells to Norrtälje today, which I really liked. I mean the sun helped, but it is a very pretty little town with a picturesque city-centre. And as the sun is out, the Scandinavians celebrate it – the whole atmosphere changes and there is a smile on everybody’s face. I…
