Ekudden

Our First Fika

Today we decided to take the boat on a little tour around Lindingö and play with some filters (hence all the Black and White Picture).

Pretty strong head winds and we were for sure happy we put the sprayhood on.
When we reached the outermost top of Lidingö we discovered a new tank stop with a small cafe called Ekudden, and our test team was pretty impressed by the service.

Straightforward, but pretty good coffee, heavenly cookies, and ice from the guy called Ola :-)

We spent 99 SEK or 10 € on 2 coffees (homebrew), an orange juice (tetrapacked), an ice sandwich, and a chocolate cake.

As you can see our test team was happy and so was the captain.



Maybe not the most impressive stop when you come from the Big City towards the Archipelago, but for us Skärgårders, a sure stop when taking visitors into the big city.

Ekudden, we will be back !

The First Tank Stop ...

The Crew Back Onboard.



Not too crowded yet in Vaxholm ... more bikers than boats.



Wonderfull colors ... silent waters ... very nice temperature ....

Getting an ice cream tour early in the season is highly recommended :-)
