10-10-10 Fire & Water

October 10th, 2010. So far a good day. This group had a barbecue party on the lawn of something...


A day when Fall has definitely come and the wear of many summers is showing on boats too.




Towards Liljeholmen.


Yet another forgotten past beauty...


Skanstull with its wind mill and many elevated bridges.


A quick coffee break.


The bridge to Reymersholm.


...and Långholmen.


Towards Fredhäll.


Fire in the trees.


Peter is capturing...


...this

Maltessholmsbadet

Long time no see, Peter's back.


Windy day, so we followed the Bromma shore line.


Last weekend before most boats are brought up on land. Here's an old beauty.


And a another.

Kungsholmen

The lumbago ("ryggskott") gone. Life returns when I still felt good close to Alvik.


The Traneberg bridge.


Moving into the Karlberg channel.


The city is in there.


And here's the Karlberg palace.


Nice...




The city hall.


Norr Mälarstrand.


Steamship with the last of the summer tourists.


Underneath Västerbron.


A petrified crane at Stora Essingen.


This guy is also seeing the end of the (fishing) season. Had a dry suit on his wish list.

Lumbago and no Orust tour

Hurt my back and and had to cancel. But the guys are out there. Follow them on my Spot page.

Here's the full trip. And here:

Vattunga & Håkansskär

Took the day off from work and drove out to Rävsnäs. Passing Fejan and the Flying Dutchman(?)


Magnus came too.


In a good mood after a couple of rainy days.


Here I just managed to sneak into one of the canals of Vattunga...


...with a sceptic follower.


Still not convinced, Magnus had to lift to get out of the canal too.


Reaching the open sea soon.


Out there is Finland.


Lunch at Håkansskär.




The painted rock, reminds me of Japanese traditional art.


Headed back on the north side of Inre Håkansskär and Gisslingö.




Returning to Rävsnäs, happy but tired.

Slagsta in drizzle

After a couple of hot and sunny weeks, today was overcast and somewhat cooler.

We saw the return of Peter after his shoulder problems.


I managed to capture one of the ospreys.


Went past Kungshatt (the Kings Hat) with its old summer houses.


A dizzy or artful shot of Peter.


Two thirds out and the drizzle began.


Passing the Slagsta ferry.


The drizzle intensified...


...and peaked.

Furusundsfjärden

Left work early and had a nice paddle in the northern half of the Furusund bay (Furusundsfjärden) with bro Magnus. Great to be on open water again. Forgot both GPS and camera at home, but cheating works too.
