Kalla Nord

21jan, Uppsala, Sverige
 
Det är kallt! Det är allt! ...som Hasse Alfredsson sa på sin tid :)
18 grader kallt i Mariehamn och lägenhetens betonggolv behövde över två dygn på sig att bli varma. Inte undra på att vi blev förkylda bägge två....
 
 
It´s cold! 18 degrees centigrade below zero in Sweden and Åland... But beautiful!
 
 
The sea is frozen and the boat houses looks forsaken. But still pretty!
 
 
Distance from Mariehamn to Cape Town is 5642nm, our next stop!!!!!!!!!

Wiki: Åland (in Finnish Ahvenanmaa) is an archipelago between the Baltic Proper and the Gulf of Bothnia and the Southwest Finland and Sweden. Åland is officially entirely Swedish-speaking and Ålanders Swedish culture and language is protected by international guarantees. Åland is demilitarized, meaning there should be no military activity in Åland in peacetime.
The provincial government has the right to enact their own laws and scenery of Åland has its own flag, its own stamps, number plates and its own police, but included in the same tax as the rest of Finland. Åland is a member of the EU and has the Euro as a currency. Åland special status in the EU allows duty-free sales when traveling to and from Åland.
The population is 28,354 inhabitants, of whom 11,262 live in the only town, Mariehamn.
Åland is known for its beautiful archipelago and its maritime history. In Mariehamn has an maritime museum and the museum ship Pommern

From Sweden or Finland there is a huge amount of ferrys sailing to/from Åland. This is the smallest one, Eckerö Linjen. 
 
 
They are world famous (in Åland) for it´s superb "smorgasbord" ;D Yummi!

Jag förstår att ni har er "time manager" fullskriven nu.
Men om det mot förmodan, skulle finnas en ledig "SLOT", är ni ju så klart välkomna att titta förbi.

P.S.
Jag har en dunk glykol i garaget.
Fick den billigt på Jula ;)

Svar: Hej PeterTack för inbjudan men trots glykol har vi svårt att "få till det"!
Många hälsningar från oss
