Leaving Jonkoping we drive towards Stockholm up the west side of Lake Vattern and stop at a summer holiday beach for locals.\u00a0 Despite being quite early in the morning there are several people already sun baking on the sandy beach.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We stop at a lovely town Hjo for morning tea in the town centre.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

We drive through lush green forests along the lake and we stop at Askersund at the top of Lake Vattern for lunch.\u00a0 We pull into an area along side a river. where there are boats moored. and find a picnic table to sit at and enjoy our lunch.<\/p>\n

We arrive at our Airbnb apartment which is in the basement of a 3 storey house and is fabulously decorated by the sisters who own the house.\u00a0 They are interior decorators and have a wonderful creative flair for making various items including the concrete coffee table & concrete stools, we just need to be careful not to walk into them.<\/p>\n

After settling in we walk around the area of Sollentuna\u00a0where we are staying and visit the local beach where there are barnacle geese & beautiful coloured ducks roaming around amongst the people.\u00a0 The area seems to be quite affluent with several Tesla cars parked in the streets and large houses in lovely garden settings.<\/p>\n

We decide to cook a meal rather than go to a restaurant so we buy some salmon & vegetables and a one use BBQ and create a wonderful meal that we eat outside on this warm evening.<\/p>\n

It’s still light at 10 pm as we finish up for the evening.<\/p>\n
