The first day at the island

... was great. Very warm weather, so we went for a bath. The water was very chilly, but a few minutes of sun bathing solved that problem.

One funny thing. Bath is called "bad" in Swedish, so you should follow signs that says bad. Mixing Swedish and English is however not so good.

The next day started with rain. We've had lots of rain this summer. Had a good breakfast that we bought in a small grocery store.

On the boat

I'm now on the boat that will take me to Gällnö.

The boat has free WiFi if you need that. It also has a small cafe.

Also found out that taking the boat is discounted for senior citizen. Tickets are bought onboard the boat.






Visiting Stockholm archipelago

The archipelago in the Stockholm area consists of thousands and thousands of islands.

I will this weekend take a boat from central Stockholm to one of those islands, Gällnö.

There are several boats that can take you to different islands. Going to Gällnö takes about 2h, and the boat trip cost about 15 EUR.
