Monday mornings can be like this

We started early on Monday morning from Argosund to Bokön. The crew was distantly but unpleasantly aware that this was the last week off from the regular routines on land. This in mind they were joking that it is possible to have Monday morning like this, you will get the point by looking at the pics. This island route required careful attention and I thought that this would be a good place to train navigating in darkness with help of the lighthouses. Well, maybe not yet this time... There was no wind but due to the beautiful path between the islands with all the nice summer houses motoring was almost pleasant. We had a lunch break at Gryts varv. More about that in the upcoming post!

Pilot station at Argosund.

Resting and relaxing in Arkosund

After two long days of sailing I decided that the crew needed a day off and I needed to rest as in Sandhamn I mostly had to concentrate looking after the vessel due to restless water. The skies were blue, the sun was shining and the water was calm. Perfect day for a crew excursion and me to rest.

There are three marinas that are connected by system of cliff hugging piers and bridges. I think the crew was really fascinated by it and they had several sessions on bad stenarna, the (sun) bathing cliffs, see in the pics. The eagle was watching them and new flora to us indicated that we are really on new grounds and waters.
