TRIP TO THE SCHÄREN-GARDEN

On August, 15th 2008 we visited the „Schären“-garden around Karlskrona. A „Schäre“ is a small island, which results from the ice ages, when continental ice sheets of Scandinavia and Canada have verflowed and grinded away the rock masses underneath. That’s how their flat shape has been formed. We started from the harbour in Karskrona and took the "Wittus" to Utlängan.

We were passing the whole “Schären”-garden with its islands Tjurkö, Sturkö, Senoren, Ytterön and Inlängan before we finally rrived in Utlängan one hour later.

We were spending the whole afternoon there, exploring the island and even jumping in the approximately 18 degrees warm Baltic Sea.

At about 5 pm the Wittus brought us back to Karskrona and we had a very nice and informative talk with a Swedish lady.
