Ana is still sick. I am exploring alone again. Today is Sweden. Because it is hard to wend the way into Stockholm we anchored at a little fishing village.
I decided not to go to Stockholm. It is a pricy 1 hour train ride each way, and I have been there twice for longer times.
In all of our other stops we just walked off the ship onto dry land. Today we had to take the tenders. (In effect, we rode the lifeboats. When they are tenders, they can hold 120. When they are lifeboats, it is 150. Since we would all be wearing lifejackets, it would be a REALLY TIGHT SQUEEZE!
The town was a 15 minute walk. The red wooden buildings are so Swedish country.
A red brick church on a hill. Gotta walk up that friggin' hill to get to town.
The senior citizens absorbing the last rays of sun before winter. It is a little chilly, which is why the still have their clothes on. (All the Swedes I knew disrobed the minute the sun came out.)
I found yarn. It was in their version of a 99 cent store, so I didn't buy any.
The Farmer's market had two stalls. This one for fruits and vegetables and another for flowers.
A knitter has been here. SSK is an abbreviation for slip, slip, knit. (This might be something rude in Sweden, who knows?)
I went back to the ship early and joined another knitter for lunch. We sat and chatted a long time. Ana was feeling better, but staying in bed. She fid get up for dinner. We started ordering tea and several glasses of water in the afternoon. (That way we weren't paying for their pricy bottles.)
Tomato and mozzarella salad
Halibut
Since Sebastian made Ana get up so he could change the sheets, he put the animal on her bed.
