My Travel and Photo Blog

  • Okay… not such a great idea

    Well, had I known, that re-installing the WordPress app would lead to a complete shutdown of my site, I would have hesitated. Thanks to ProPhoto who no longer supports their theme, the main site was completely trashed. So, I chose to got for a native WP theme to keep the blog going and will attend…

  • Coming up…

    T -5days. Not too much time left until I’m going on holidays. Even though this post is mainly to try whether the WP App now works after re-start. But if it does, I will be able to post not only photos and snapshots from my iPad or Mac after retouching, but also directly from my…

  • Skansen

    A few images from today’s visit in Skansen. My yearly pass was still valid. It was a wonderful day: cold, sunny, snow – just as beautiful as the city can be!

  • Stockholm

    Left for a long weekend on Thursday. Off to a nice snowy start at the terminal in Kiel. Arrived to a fresh -8° C in Stockholm yesterday afternoon. Unfortunately, the previous night was so cold, the water crane was frozen solid. Well, no fresh water in the tank for me, except for a few litres.…

  • Breakfast

    While I am still sitting comfortably in the camper today doing nothing but relaxing, I thought I’d just update some snapshots: breakfast with a view earlier this morning and last night’s highlight: Juno. Juno is one of three ships traveling from Stockholm to Göteborg via Göta and Trollhätta kanal during the summer months. I’ve actually…

  • Borensberg

    Quick update and just a couple of phone snapshots. I took the short drive to Borensberg today. Apparently, people like to be early. Yesterday, most of the spots in Sjötorp were already full. Today, the queue was enormous. A good thing, I had booked in advance. Borensberg has a lock and a bridge and I…
