Here we are now, in Stocka, about 50 km south of Sundsvall. Beautiful weather again, 25°, sunny. The parking space was full, so we had to find an alternative and found something...

Happiness is back! Another dreamy parking space and the weather is cooperating as well. After a good hour drive, we arrived in Åstön, near Sundvall. I had chosen a restaurant...

It's so beautiful here. We decided to stay another day. Tomorrow is our 21st anniversary. Let's see if we can find a nice restaurant to celebrate.

Actually, we drove way too much today. The weather was way too good for that. At least it developed from the morning. On the way, we refueled (even more expensive than in...

Supplement from yesterday, as we had no network on the ship and later no desire on land: We drove to Frederikshavn in very modest weather. In the evening our ferry to Gothenburg...
