Lurö
Weekend in a kayak
Despite some rain it turned out to be a great trip to Lurö.
Started with nice weather (not rain), about 5km to “Bahallen” , set the tent up and had a wonderful evening with no wind. The following morning started with rain but it stopped in the afternoon when we went to “Lurö” 6km. After a almost sunny day and a good night sleep we jumped in our kayaks and went to “Vithall”, a tiny island with a little house who are always open to visit, like a museum. Then we went back (with rain) to Ekenäs there we started the whole trip.
Yes, my english are like this. No improvements there. 🙂

WPC of this week: Treat
Treat can be so many things and feelings, here are some of mine:
A lost treat..
A nice catch for dinner:
Some early mornings with a nice sunrise:
And sunsets:
Or just water.. 🙂
It´s also ok with other things than water…
And this kind of small houses are always nice on a remote island.. 🙂
Any place where you can be totally relaxed is a real treat:

WPC “Careful”
Full focus and a little bit careful.. 🙂

3 days on Lurö
Saturday, July 5, I started from Ekenäs marina and paddled south to Bösshamn.
On Sunday, so I reluctantly made way around on the trails that they have on the island, went through a detour (a bit lost) to Stenstaka. After a good ice cream I went back to Bösshamn.
Not so many tourists on the island yet but it will come later. Plenty of birds were there, among others, Havsörn, Fiskgjuse, any kind of hawk probably Brun Kärrhök … and seagulls.
Managed to miss a huge lightning storm mainly affected Dalsland.
After having been ashore for 10-15 minutes it started to rain. 🙂
Lördagen 5 juli startade jag från Ekenäs gästhamn och paddlade söderut till Bösshamn.
På söndagen så knallade jag runt på lederna som de har på ön, gick via en omväg (lite vilse) till Stenstaka. Efter en god glass så gick jag tillbaka till Bösshamn.
Inte så mycket turister på ön ännu men det kommer väl senare. Gott om fåglar var det bl a, Havsörn, Fiskgjuse, någon form av hök troligen Brun Kärrhök, … och Fiskmås.
Klarade av att missa ett stort åsk-oväder som främst drabbade Dalsland.
Efter ha varit iland 10-15 min så började det att regna. 🙂
Blomma, troligen Luröea blommis … typ.
Gulls went around and ate blueberries ..
