Plan was easy: to get up early, to get on bicycle and go to Vadstena. Such a paltry... 50 kilometers. The weather forecast was so-so pot, probability of rain about 30%, strong wind and temperature no indexing to heats...


We departured according to plan, that is 15 minutes past nine ;). At once at beginning it turned out, that on the ocassion of Midsummer planned food shopping on track we have to put off at least to 11 hour.
Slowly, with wind straight into eyes (I would name it gale, but so be it, that it was wind ;), rain hanged above heads, we moved on passing by the way runic stones and looking at Sweden, which is worth to see. To Vadstena we arrived a few minutes past fourteen with strong resolution any step more.
What is Vadstena - everybody can read in guidebooks: the most important two sights are cathedral with hallows of St. Brigida as well as Middle Aged castle rounded by moat, which is now used as parking place for various types of yachts and motorboats. From the castle spreads amazing view over the Vattern lake, which is more like sea than Swedish Baltic.


The homecoming was amazing: three hours with long stopovers, that is on the average about 17 kilometers per hour. In this way wind returned us what took by the way to Vadstena. The sky also cleared, probably in reward for achievement of destination.
There is no point in describing all that we saw by the way. Simply you have to go and see it. The nearest chanse was on Saturday on route around Roxen lake.
