Visit to Storön, Runmarö

On Saturday F and I decided to pay Storön a vist where my colleague Petra was going to spend the weekend with her M. First we went to Solna Centrum to get some things done but early afternoon we drove to the boat and were ready for a trip towards Storön near Runmarö. The weather was lovely that day and there were loads of boats in the water. At Strömma Kanal we stopped to get petrol and the idea was to have lunch there. However, the place was crowded and apparently there was a race on which probably made people stop off there as well. We realised we weren't gonna get a seat so we decided to just get a roll in the café. We went trough Strömma kanal and stopped the engine just after. Then we had a rolls and enjoyed a glass of rosé wine together in the sun. We checked the temperature in the water and it was actually 23 degrees, a temparature that even made me want to jump into the water ;)

Later on it was time to head towards Petra, we weren't sure exactly where her place was but she had given us directions beforehand. We found it no problem but I had to ring her since I wasn't sure which house was hers :) We left the boat and went up to the house where we all had some wine and snacks. It was a lovely evening and her house is on a hill so you had a fantastic view over the water. After chatting to each other for a couple of hours while consuming some more wine they thought it was best to cook some dinner. We didn't expect anything like that when we came over but they served both starters and a main course. For starters we had a salmon tartare which was aboslutely gorgeous and for main course we had some barbequed beef together with a lovely potato sallad. There was a lot of laughter and we stayed until close to midnight before it was time for F and I to take the boat home. All in all a brilliant start to my holidays!
