Midsommar in pictures


Yesterday we celebrated Midsommar here in Sweden, and it was such a nice and festive day! We are in an old fishing harbour in Berg on the island of Möja, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate the shortest night in traditional Swedish manner. Other than our new friends Mathieu and Caroline from our neighbouring boat Petite, we also got company from Timon, who is going to sail with us for some days, and Luca and Pablo, Livs former colleague from the Netherlands, who now lives in Stockholm. Here are some pictures from the days we have spent on Möja. Happy Midsommar 🇸🇪

Désirée and Petite in their festive Midsommar outfits (the harbour is quite shallow so we stayed a little far out from the bridge)

Following Swedish tradition, we of course had home med strawberry cake as well

View on the harbour at 1:30 – just about the darkest point of night

Today we have set sails again and have actually gone back to a place we have already visited – an anchorage bay just north of Möja. We are looking forward to another nice summer evening together with our friends from Petite 🙂

    But a lot to enjoy after all!

      As long as we keep sailing north we don’t really feel it getting darker, but it will hit us much harder going south again! So exciting that you have reached Norway, looking forward to reading about it 🇳🇴
