 |
|
| Foxy in Stockholm by the train Arlanda Express. That was a wonderful train with good seats. | |
 |
|
| Foxy should made a sea cruise with the Viking Line boat M/S Cinderella. The boat had not come yet. Here Foxy was standing by the boat, Mariella. | |
 |

A professional photographer from Viking
Line took pictures of all the passengers. You could buy the photo the
next day. foxy is looking happy on that picture. This picture is scanned
and resized. In real it's much better. Foxy met this photographer again on her next trip with Cinderella. And he said I can put up this picture because I had bought it. But I (Foxy) will thank the photographer for taking such a good picture. |

The evening started with delicious food. You could taka all kind of food
from the buffet. There was all kind of clod fish, like pickled herring,
Baltic (small) herring and salmon, all
kind of cold meat and some warm dishes. The warm dishes on the picture are: From left to right: Small Swedish meatballs, chicken, prince sausages, and scrambled eggs. |

 |
|
| The boat dropped anchor on a gorgeous place in the archipelago. | |
 |
|
| When the sun went down everything was coloured in gold. | |
 |
|
| The reason that the boat dropped anchor was that we should enjoy this place and have an anchor party. You could buy coffee, soft drink or beer and listen to artists who were singing and playing music. | |
 |
|
| Suddenly Foxy saw some small friends and Foxy went so happy! :-) | |
 |
|
| It were great black-back gulls. (Larus marinus). They visited the boat. | |

 |
|
| Suddenly he did land on the railing near Foxy. He was beautiful! And he showed up good for the picture. | |

|
The boat, Cinderella made Foxy so
happy. There was so much happiness and harmony on board. And there were
no grumpy people. Not even when they had to stand in line for taking the
food. We did help each other with all kind of things even though we were
strangers to each other. No wonder that Foxy was happy. :-) |
|
 |
|
| And God made the sky so beautiful. | |
 |
|
| Soon the sun should go down. | |
 |
|
| The boat Silja Festival and a little boat in the sunset. | |
 |
|
| The band Trio Me´Bumba was playing later in the evening. A famus band. They sing country and Swedish music. This was indoors because now it almost was dark. Foxy bougth the CD. They did sign in inside in the folder. And the man at the rigth gave Foxy a hug :-) | |
 |
|
| Per Myrberg was a singer on the boat. But he also was the sea cruise host. Foxy bougth his CD and then he signet the CD. He wrote "Hugs Per Nyberg on it :-) (kramar = hugs) | |
 |
|
| It was now in the middle of the night. But it was not so dark as in autumn and winter. Foxy was looking out of the window from the boat and saw a lot of lamps from the light houses. | |
 |
|
| It was time to go to bed. Foxy forgot to take a picture of the cabin that had a little window. Here the part of the boat there Foxy slept. The cabin: X. | |
 |
|
|
The boat was now on the open sea. And
should arrive at the island, Åland in Finland the next day. Foxy slept well, while Cinderella took her over the glistening, enchanted sea. And the sea was calm the whole trip.
