The location is very rural and the campsite is located alongside a body of water, most likely an inlet on the Gulf of Bothnia. We chose this site for its remoteness in order to chill-out before we hit the road for another three straight days.

I think Moe is getting bored with the driving (we are close to 3,000km now) as she has started a photo collection of roads signs.

The showers and toilets are clean and there is a washer and dryer included in the site fees which we made the most of yesterday.

The weather was nice yesterday with broken sunshine during the 22 hours of daylight. Temperatures are pleasant in the sun but fall dramatically when it’s cloudy.

Yesterday was mid-summers eve. We knew this weekend was a bank holiday weekend but we hadn’t appreciated that mid-summers eve was such a big event in Sweden. Partying continued into mid-summers day and several strange trees appeared on-site. Presumably some kind of voodoo rituals were performed at midnight whilst we were blissfully asleep!
