Going on vacation to Gotland tomorrow, to enjoy the sun, sea and the Almedalen political week. The ship I'll be going on will average almost 26 knots. Not bad.

Oh, and as a sign of good maritime fortune, my long languishing buy order at last went through, due to today's stockmarket decline. Yay!

Gotland is great. The Ex's maternal relatives include a mad noble who kept his horse in the house with him near Visby. And a living relative who is a commercial pilot living in Visby. We flew from Arlanda to Visby with him in a small plane. That's how he commuted to work from Gotland.
