Archipelago Daytrip to Sandhamn

Yesterday we took a relaxing all-day cruise to the outer archipelago islands. We stopped for a two hour walk around the small island of Sandhamn.


There's a small town on the island but only about 100 people live there year-round.  While researching for the trip I discovered that there's a fictional Swedish TV series called The Sandhamn Murders.  It looks kind of like Murder She Wrote, only set on a tiny Swedish island.  There are four seasons of it -- we will have to watch it when we find the time!


I thought the landscape was very pretty with lots of pine trees and small wooden cabins -- parts of it almost looked like somewhere in Northern Arizona to me.


We were only on the island just long enough to explore some of the forest trails and the beach, and then back on the boat to Stockholm.  It was a nice relaxing break from the bustling city!
