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.

At Gällnö Hostel

I had booked a small cottage/cabin for two. The hostel is very popular so you really need to book in advance.

The surrounding is very nice.






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.
