April 5: Swedish seashore

The departure from Stockholm. I spent most of the remaining daylight time up on deck.

5170

The chaos of the ferry terminal.

5173

This time we took the Silja Serenade, not the Symphony.

5181

The port.

5185

Along the shore after liftoff: an approaching brigade of apartment buildings.

5191

Seagull flying below.

5197

Back toward the city. I think I now recognize some of these spires: Tyska Kyrkan at left, Storkyrkan about 1/3 of the way across, Klara Kyrkan the left one of the two spires near the middle.

5198

The city becoming a bit shrouded in darkness.

5204

Deck + housing blox.

5215

MOON

5225

The Tallink (going to Tallinn) ahead of us.

5232

Lots of villas.

5238

MOON no wait that's just Globen.

5244

Sunwaves.

5256

A lurking castle.

5266

Here we have a cabin with a truly Finnish sense of isolation.

5269

Tallink and the Viking Line.

5279

Soft late-day clouds.

5282

I like this icon because it's (1) mystifying and (2) the people-agglomeration in the center looks like an internal component of an old tape recorder or something.

5291

TURBINE

5306

Bird-tree islands.

5315

The marshy parts of the shore seemed quite similar to some of the terrain of southwestern Finland.
