Landsort 9-11 maj

Arrived monday to absolutely spectacular weather with sun from a clearblue sky and 75 degrees.
Unheard of in Swedish archipelago in early may. Plenty of kanons remains from worldwar II. During the Cold war the Swedes made great and soffisticated  preparations to defend from the russians.
Ten years later Russia collapsed and the ellaborate defenses were no longer necessary.

The nature is tipical for the outer archipelago. Yesterday we walked to the south end where the lighthouse is. There are three harbours and the Waxholmsboat chooses harbour depending on the wind. Both harbours were very narrow. We are impressed with the captains navigational ability!



We stay in a small cottage up on a hill with all comforts we could need. We had to bring all food though - and wine! - since there is no stores on the island.
We're now back at home, very tired and we're going to bed early..
