On to Rønne (Bornholm) on Friday. Change of crew. Ships baby with mum now on board. Mooring lines may become permanent for a while. 

Sprightly run up to Allinge (N. Bornholm). Gusts up to Bft. 8 .

From Christianso over to Svanecke on Bornholm. Then took a small visitor on board for the beat down to Snoegebeck (see below). He survived. Skipper also survived departure from harbour backwards, just.

Just a flavor of Christianso.

Christianso, NO of Bornholm

From Sandvik to Kalmar. Then Utklippen (50 SM). Today on to Christianso (NO from Bornholm). Worth a visit. Part of the fortifications erected after British naval attack.

Sandvik, NW Öland. Many years Since stone was shipped from here.

Back in Idö. Smoked salmon in the restaurant. Easterly holding up. 

Fyrudden from Oxelüsund today. 

Slots for visitors have been extended.

Screen shot of navionics chart. Still waiting for clearance to use the app on the blog. Guess it is not coming!

Now at Oxelösund (Fiskehamn) by way of Nyköping. Thirm member of crew due in today from

Ostfriesland for run down to Bornholm. Looks like clear skies and steady easterly wind for the next few days at least.

Working on Navionics  App for embedded charts.  If they let me!

Just a view of the suroundings. Norrhamn is at the NW tip of Öja (Landsort).

Struck down with an Ague in Nyneshamn. But pottered on to Norrhamn on Öja (Landsort) today.

A discrete harbour which has avoided mention in the usual pilot books.

From Blidö down to Sandhamn. Filling up for the Regatta.
Wednesday on to Utö. SE 3-4 so pleasant run down.
Today discovered seafish restaurant down on SW corner of Utö.
Cycled past military area to get there. Platoon waiting to be served
when we got there. Rifles stowed under table and secured with a boot,
then tucked into prawns and salmon. Families and kids milling about.
Swedish sailor indicated this was part of the increased presence as a response to Putin.
No laughing matter.

From Arholma down to Blidö ( near Furusund). Here we have Helmi, built in 1880 to transport sand, gravel and timber. Now restored.
