Nyköping (no pictures)

The first 18 miles today were similar to yesterday, nice skärgård navigation. It was windy but very protected. We did get some water over the deck, but that was due to big speedboats. These seem to be a Swedish passion and they appear to take great delight passing you at close quarters and making big waves. Pretty unpleasant, they must irritate the sailors even more than us!
Then some 7 miles up a dredged channel into Nyköping. The town is pretty and makes up for the somewhat boring approach (we are getting quite picky, aren't we?). As we'll be here tomorrow as well, we will do the guided town walk (in English). Nyköping is one of the oldest towns in Sweden (more than 800 years old, the brochures say) and it will undoubtedly have an interesting royal history. More tomorrow!
