Black Lake Castle

Pete and I went for a bike ride to Svartsjö slott (Färingsö) and carried on a bit further as the countryside was so nice and the sky blue (in places).

Maybe we should have been less ambitious as the heavens opened copiously halfway upon her home journey. We got quite wet but the general temperature is still warm and the sun came back after a while, so we did not have time to freeze. 36 km in total, not bad, hey?

The castle had the advantage to have increased its range of ice-cream - 23 different flavours to choose from! - so the destination had been a good idea. I trued walnut and Pete took some lemoncake ice-cream, nice!

The park's flower-and-vegetable garden is amazing, so well kept and in full bloom right now, beautiful!
