Kurt & me. We were all piled in a taxi to the bus that
will take us to the train that will take us to the bus
that will take us to the boat that will take us to the
lake. Unfortunately, Alan didn't come with us on this
leg of the journey, as he had some friends he wanted
to see in Stockholm.

We traveled on this small river connecting two lakes.
Don't ask me the names -- even if I heard them, I'm
sure I wouldn't remember them.

We had all stopped by a supermarket in town before the
ride to pick up some victuals. Kate & Erik were happy
to see each other again, but Erik had to head home the
next day, so didn't stay on for midsummer with the others.

A close-up of the engine, which had a high-pressure
cylinder from around 1940. The low-pressure cylinder
was a little newer.

The RPM guage was stuck, and I offered to see if I could
fix it. I couldn't. I guess my future as a ship's
mechanic isn't bright -- better stick to computer graphics,
then.

to ring the bell after taking this photo, but we succeeded

to catch the bus to Motala right before the rain started
pouring down.
