| The walk into the town centre. |

| The only building left standing after the russians torched the place.. the church which they used as a stable. |
 |
| The Bathing Societies club house. We think it had more to do with drinking than bathing! |

We sailed the short distance to the small town of Trosa to get food. We'd run out of essentials like milk and orange juice(its essential in this heat as neat boat water isn't a tasty drink). It's a very pretty old town reminiscent of Dutch towns as it's built astride a canal and very busy with happy holidaying Swedes. The day had started overcast and with a cool swim which resulted in us eating breakfast swaddled in blankets. It ended in sweltering heat and under clear skies.
The heat has continued and we've enjoyed a gentle sail, to windward, retracing our outward track which was also to windward. But how different it is in such good weather and with loads of boats to show the way. We're now anchored in the most amazing anchorage yet. It's like a lake with islands dotted round and enough space to anchor a fleet of ships. Everyone is swimming like us!
