Orust II and Gro

Yesterday was the warmest day so far this summer and luckily for us, we could spent the day on Orust with our colleague Bengt and his family. Bengt is looking after one of the neighbour’s house and Icelandic horses these days. Just like last time I was there, the words that come to mind are beautiful, calm, relaxing and cosy. This time we also had time to go to the marina and inspect Bengt’s sailing boat ‘Gro’. We had a very nice dinner where I was allowed to watch Denmark play against Czech Republic in the ongoing UEFA European Football Championship :-).
