Steamboat to Stockholm

Today we enjoyed a free day to enjoy the area around Mariefred. Several of us chose to cycle through green fields, forests and along the shores of Lake Mälaren to the isolated Taxinge Manor House. Taxinge is not only a beautiful manor house set in lovely surroundings but it is famous for its cakes.

After tea break, we boarded the charming steam train from Taxinge, reminiscent of times gone by, and made our way back to the village of Mariefred.
