Morning on the ferry
About an hour left before arriving in Göteborg, the darkness is fading away slowly and I was testing the phone camera’s low light sensitivity. 😉 I’ve had breakfast already and now I’m just relaxing before the drive up to Stockholm. Traffic is probably going to build up through the weekend, so I will just take…

Heading to Sweden
On board the Stena Germanica heading to Göteborg in just a while. I’ve almost never just gone through check-in and went right onto the ferry, but it seems like it’s a bit quieter than during the summer. My winter holidays start now!

Goodbye Edinburgh
It’s a cloudy, overcast morning on the campsite in Edinburgh. Last night’s raindrops are still running down alongside the camper and wet mist is keeping the air damp and my clothes wet. I’ve cleared up in the campervan and will disconnect the electric in an little while. Then it’s goodbye for this time. It’s been…

Second Breakfast
Even though I’m not a hobbit… Teas and scones at eteaket are just too good. A lovely start into an otherwise overcast day. I’ll still have a splendid time today! I’m in Edinburgh.
