Sweden Recap Part III - On the waters around Lit

We had a mixed bag of weather while we were in Sweden, but there were plenty of nice days in between the rainy ones. On one of our last days up in Jämtland, we set off on a sunny day in 'Merry', Bengt and Solweig's boat.

Anna was co-captain, helping her farfar with steering and reading the charts.


And while Anna and Bengt were doing all of the work, Patrik and I were chillaxing on the foredeck.


This is a river that we are boating on, but it is so large that there are even island groups that we passed by.


While we were out on 'Merry', Malin had taken the boys out on 'Lolla', and we met up with them on a little beach for lunch.



Back on the boat Anna wanted a turn with dad up on the foredeck before taking a break with farmor.



Before heading home for the day, we stopped off at the campground in Lit where they have a nice swimming area. Anna dipped her toes into the water with the help of faster Malin.


And we managed to meet up with Kicki and Pär, some old friend's of Patrik's who had just arrived home after travelling for 4 months through Europe in a VW van equipped with a rooftop tent, and with 3 kids in tow. Something to aspire to - so impressive!


Finally it was time to jump back into the boat and head home to Lägdvägen 33, where a dinner on the patio was in order to cap off the day.
