Swedish meatballs

As Swedish meatballs are sort of famous (partly thanks to Ikea, one thinks), we had to try them. We went for lunch to celebrate Lyn's birthday (early, but this was when we were all together) and all had the veal meatballs with pick led cucumber, lingonberries and mashed potatoes, supposedly all the traditional accompaniments. They were excellent! Washed down with a Swedish beer, of course:





We did a self-guided tour of the old city. That is, Sean guided us using a website on his 'device'. The Gamla Stan is a very well preserved medieval town. Unique! This is the narrowest alley, 85cm wide:





Sean is now on his way back to London. We'll just check availability of moorings in Saltsjöbaden tomorrow morning. It's only 12 miles away, and very protected but there is a lot of wind predicted so we want to be sure of a good place to tie up!
