fiskeläge

We spent the day exploring more craggy coves and islets that were once crown dependencies granted to fisherfolk to settle and establish maritime industries on the nearby island groups of Orust and Tjörn. https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1Jy9h7XBx5M1Jpuqo9-gt2fH5dxc2IW_-https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1gLOHBVj_j0iclfgXrW-5yYcFmrqoNSfnhttps://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1UdRfVxcjCKMjWYyuUvK1hj83B1c387IWFirst we came to the anchor community of Henån that once specialised in traditional boat making and continues to supply craftsmanship and expertise to larger yacht and ship manufacturers. https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1Zu33ieIXD7aj9urGF6gWh9dXSlWs54GOhttps://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1zmwwOsWoNz0C8aek9oK8popGQD0oquZuhttps://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1d5oCBwVp1LKTeUzFu7LCxiHlN7HLLLcqhttps://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1M6iYu5_EFQR67UigX9-pe_Egwvfq_31Jhttps://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1iAYtzFIWWSvu9b9VeNGTJexjKXRRKmsxhttps://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1b81tl5PClqtDySiMuHrEC_OZDlBlE1qdContinuing along the coast with several stops at lagoons and landings in between, we sought today’s catch at a small fish (fisk) market in a town called Mollösund with a vista over the archipelago and looking out to sea with a widow’s walk and a busy marina below. https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1PwOPr5Mqs6iZL623lOObq1CzM7qfB4onhttps://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1w0pxO4hF2RlbSC65Gd7IEJPKgvXfV0jdhttps://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1hnRD5NMGrZRFK36trkYwxNT2XlRUUmnEhttps://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1i-jqUjUvP_mLNaqVNPve7mBmp0byjHWbhttps://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1hjGvHooBUHtlwxdjjjP4BMxfeQAONE8thttps://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1jdIvgL6TTt7akVJCDxL8RsvrS4Rp3xyjStopping to marvel at the fjord that clefts the islands, we drove on to an Iron Age archeological site with numerous burial sites and standing stones called Pilane in Klövdal that annually hosts an outdoor exhibition of monumental sculptures, this season showcasing the work of artist Sean Scully and various others. The colossal bust over the ridge was especially transfixing in this natural setting and dramatic, ancient landscape.
