I guess a more accurate title would be “planes, trains, automobiles, and boats.” We spent several hours yesterday (Tuesday, July 28) on a boat (the Stockholm) sailing out to the archipelago town of Vaxholm. Not really sailing since it was a big triple-decker ship. You can see lovely pictures on the Stromma Kanalbolaget website. You can see somewhat less lovely pictures (it was a drizzly day) in my photo gallery.
The boat tour had been recommended my several people here as well as my aunt Julie, who has visited the area before. We thought it was great! Next time we’re in the country, I’d love to travel further out in the archipelago to see the open sea.
My brain is only working at half speed this morning. I woke up at (what turned out to be) 5am. I looked at my computer, and the clock said 10pm. I added seven hours to that and came up with 6am. So I got up, took a shower, and when I came out, Bryan was also dressed and ready. Then we looked at the clock again, and Bryan said, “It’s 5:40am.” Oops. He went back to sleep. I’ve been editing and uploading pictures. And right now (at 7:30am local time…12:30am CDT), I have to raise my eyebrows to keep my eyes open. I guess maybe I’ll be sleeping on the plane ride home.
Our flight is supposed to leave at 10:15am, so we’ll be heading off to the airport in the next 15 minutes or so.
Catcha later!
