The Voyage of 'S/V Röde Orm'

Amazing! The Met Office claims that the NE wind will stay on until after the weekend. Fantastic news for us, less so for whoever wants to sail north. Well, those aren't that many, we meet one yacht per day on an average. In fact the whole archpelago is more or less 'closed for winter'. Summer houses shut and desoleted and so on.

Anyway, we pressed on another day from early morning to sunset and dropped the hook just a cable length from the Castle of Kalmar as shown in the picture of the day.
Quite an exclusive view, huh?
