1000 meter books

I almost missed the entire Stockholm Culture Festival. On the very last day, yesterday, I finally managed to get there just to find most of it to be disassembled. However the great event for the day was the worlds longest book table, about 1000 meter long (0,62 miles for those who have no metric DNA). I struggled NOT to watch books but people instead. I had no backpack to carry any books. As a matter of fact I carried only one camera, my Fujifilm Finepix X100. So I focused on catching people. Here are some pictures from a world event.
Now I know, it takes a lot of banana eating to make book table of this dimension.

East coast

Although we live in Stockholm it is still an hour to go to the East coast. Last Saturday we went to Bullandö marina. A great place if you have a boat. For me it just made me sick and tired to be without it. Yet I have decided not to buy another one. From Bullandö we took a different route home over Vaxholm which included two ferrries. In Vaxholm we couldn't find a place to park so we went on to Bogesund castle. Small but nice-looking according to the web site. We found it under construction. Facade facelift was the ongoing project under hideous blue curtains.

Where the Jagga people go

Last night I went to Brostugan close to Drottningholm. They have car meetings there almost every evening. This evening was the day of the Jaguars. A lot of E-types and some modern cats and a few Morse-type as well.
