Stockholm and the Stockholm Archipelago photos (august 2006)

Here we go, as I promised myself(!) I am publishing some photos from our trip to Sweden before it is 2007: precisely photos from Stockholm and from the Söderviken zone of Ornö island, which is just one of 24000 islands that form the Stockholm Archipelago or better said Stockholm Skärgården (garden on the rocks). wooden boat, söderviken, stockholm archipelago, swedenSome of these so called islands are small islots and rocks. This is not to scorn what you might experience in every single one of them… Nature was very generous when we were there and everything seem to be much more protected than it is in other parts of the world.

Volar es un placer

Rjcp ha escrito un articulo que en mi opinión vale la pena leer. Nos hace reflexionar sobre los conceptos de seguridad y libertad a partir de un par de proposiciones que debian haber considerado ya las especialistas europeas antes de diseñar la nueva normativa de seguridad para los viajes aéreos.

RJCP » Volar es un placer

Yo viajé el primer día de incorporación de nuevas medidas. Había un caos total en los aeropuertos de Barcelona a las 6 de la mañana y como no aun mas en Fiumicino de Roma mas tarde donde hice una escala.

update: Natalia me ha avisado que San Juan de Gaztelugatxe está en Bermeo. Lo remarco para que no haya malentendidos. Si vais a Bilbao y no lo encontráis, ya no es mi responsabilidad.

San Juan de Gaztelugatxe

San Juan de Gaztelugatxe (Basque: Gaztelugatxeko Doniene) is a tiny island on the coast of Biscay belonging to the municipality of Bermeo, in Basque Country (Spain). It is connected to the mainland by a man made bridge. On top of the island stands a hermitage, dedicated to San Juan, that dates from the 10th century, although certain discoveries indicate that the date might be the 9th century. Along with another small neighboring island, Aketze, they form a protected Biotope, that extends from the town of Bakio until cape Machichaco, on the Bay of Biscay.
