I’ve got a bit behind as we’ve been 3 days without WiFi, which on the whole is a good thing! Anyway today we’re heading off to Stockholm – looking forward to that but a bit worried about Eileen’s foot – but in the end it’s healing very quickly which is a huge relief.
Its Sweden’s national holiday today which might explain the preponderance of flags and lack of traffic – although the camp site is just about empty which is weird, especially with the glorious weather. Although the restaurant and bar don’t open until next week. The Swedes seem to have a very short summer season, and so when it comes they really go for it.

A lovely stop on the way including Gripsholm Castle – one of Sweden’s most impressive.
And a brilliant car rally
Then to Stockholm – in the outskirts on a lake.
Began the huge challenge of finding our way around including travel and parking apps, getting our bearings, finding somewhere to eat when we haven’t a clue and all the associated fun of arriving somewhere new. Bit underwhelmed to be honest, although restaurant was surprisingly good ( high-class meatballs!).
Eileen is coming up with a plan for tomorrow.
