I visited a good ol friend today, who recently bought a house far out in Bohuslän’s archipelago.
She told me a story about her great grand-father, who was a fisherman in the village. Apparently, all of the men in the village used to work on the same fishing boat, called “Polarstjärnan”. Around 1890 the boat went missing, and all the men perished - including her ancestor. Only women and children were left in the village, left to take care of themselves.
So I guess my daily struggle with the District line is quite OK, considering.
Here’s a short clip from Stocken. It’s an amazingly beautiful place, but unfortunately the quality of the clip is bad.
