Kayaking, Lake Mälaren, Sweden






A 5 hour kayaking trip on Lake Mälaren on a nice autumn day.. Pretty windy but aviodable by staying on the leeward side of the islands.. Went from my regular starting point on Kärsön north up along the east side of Lovön, and then turned back south past Drottningholm.. Saw plenty of swan-families.. As usual, when kayaking in Mälaren, I had to take care in channels and sounds as plenty of motor boats are speeding in a rather reckless way..

Scuba Diving, Gozo






Went on a Saturday trip to Gozo with Jesper, Rafn and Lidia for scuba diving.. We had three great dives on the sites Middle Finger, Coral Cave, Coral hole and the Inland Sea, the last site with a very cool tunnel out into the sea.. Got these nice photos as Jesper and Rafn had a camera for under-water photography.. As usual, some big fishes I didn't know the names of.. The grand under-water sceneries were the high-lights. And just spending a long day out in good company of course..

Mtb, Tal-Blata, Malta






Rode from Sliema via Pace Ville and Ras il-Qrejten to Tal-Blata, the area east of Mellieha, north-east of Xemxija.. Really nice and varied terrain for mountainbiking, stone and gravel trails, dirt trails, and old salt-pools hacked into the rocks next to the sea that were great fun to play around in for drops and jumps.. Beatiful views.. With all the elevation up and down it is pretty strenous to bike around there.. Went up to the peak with Fort Campbell and then back down again.. Fell over handlebars and on to the side a few times as usual, but no major damage or me or the bike.. Ride back to Sliema included the regular milkshake at Bahar, ic-Caghaq Bay..
