Visby - June 7th to 9th

Entrance to the harbour is dominated by the fast ferries to the mainland

Phun in an empty marina which is packed with 200 yachts in the sailing season.

We liked the painted Viking stones collected in the museum.

View over the old town from its wall.
Did the sights of Visby. The Old Town is within mediaeval walls and stuffed with timber frame houses of varied designs and huge churches. It's a world apart from the busy shopping center with its familiar high Street names just outside the city wall.
Again heldback by the persistant strong N wind so cycled to the cliffs just south of the town for a view of the town.
