Homebound

Our two weeks journey is about to end.

Waiting for the ferry to Turku in Stockholm. We also had time to meet our friend Liisa at the restaurant of Fotografiska- museum. She managed to speak us into the restaurant without paying the ticket as there was not time enough for the photos.

To get from Poland to Sweden we travelled across the Baltic Sea with a brand new Stena Ebba. On that date September 28th, 29 years ago Estonia drowned in storm with hundreds of people, but we could enjoy mild winds and sunshine.

Ferryharbour in Karlskrona was on half hour drive to the town. We were very few passangers without own car, but luckily there was local bus in front of the terminal.

Karlskrona is a small and sympathetic town in southern Sweden. After one night rest in the hotel Siesta we continued our trip towards Stockholm, first with two local trains to Alvesta. Due to electric failure on the main railway the trains to Stockholm were delayed. That has happened to me earlier, previous time I was here the delay was three hours, now only one hour.

Krösatåg to Emmaboda train looked like a train in fairytales

Our train came finally 13.38, but SJ has a good habit to inform of the delays and missing bistro in the train with SMS. When the delay increased, you could at least get coffee and snacks for free.

Baltic Sea with its sandy beaches and sunny warm days offered its best to us.
