Midsummer by sea

Midsummer, as every good Swede knows is a time to disappear off to the country to be among good friends and celebrate the year's longest day - which I can tell you is loooong.  But if you are going to the country why not sail???

So three of us set off bright and early for a five hour sail - and much against tradition we had sunshine all the way , and not bad winds withall.

And, having arrived and slung the hook off the end of the jetty...  Lunch onboard - silltårta (herring tart), what else - and a little nubba,  a swim to cool down and freshen up, a quick change and then it's off to the party....
