Sauna and bacon weekend

Two days with some
friends in Juhas cottage 120 km north of Gothenburg. The wheather kept us from outdoor activities. Sauna and bath in the nearby stream. And in the afternoon we did some serious cooking. A dinner with only meet and cheese.

Start at Vejbystrand and stop at Båstad railway station. Will follow the weather forecast and the decide if I will use the Lunar Solo or tarp.

New shoes

Have tried to find a shop in my area selling the Inov-8 shoes. Wasn't easy. Visited some shops in Stockholm as well, but no result. Didn't dare to buy them on the web. Always tricky for me to get shoes because of both size and shape.
Have been locking for a light shoe in GTX for comming trips.
Finaly my choise was Salomon XA PRO ULTRA GTX.



Not easy to find them in size 13, but my favorite shop, Femmans Sport in Gothenburg had them.

Last week I have tested the shoes in both rough and wet forrest as well as on hard road. Very satisfied. Will use them for daily walks until next weekend trip.

Sunday daytrip

We use to visit the stream "Säveån" in beginning of May. Its a lovely area and in this period there are millions of flowers near the stream.
Some threes had marks from beavers. Its fantastic to see what thoose small animals can do.

Sandsjöbacka reservate

After a rainy morning we drove the 30 km south to the southern part of the Sandsjöbacka reservate. Been here a lot of times before. No need for map. It was very muddy and wet on the trail. A few kilometers later we went to the shelter. A warming fire, some hot dogs and coffe. Nice. And the dog watching everything, wrapt in a warm blanket.
We continued the trip in the lovely surroundings. Passed the little farm and some cottages and then trough the forrest to the car.
