Kapellskär - Norrpada Kayaking, Stockholm Archipelago 2014

Not every trip goes according to plan. Starting from Kapellskär in the northern Archipelago of Stockholm, we had hoped to reach the outer island group Röder via Vidinge and Norrpada nature reserves. However, on our second day out Markus grew really ill, forcing us to abort at Norrpada. We spent an extra day recovering at Vidinge, and thanks to wonderfully calm waters we managed the open sea crossing back to Kapellskär on our 5th day out. Although Markus spent most of the trip being exhausted, we were happy to have been out in the splendid Autumn weather and to experience a few beautiful sunsets over the Archipelago before leaving Sweden again.
