Titania

Titania Titania
Titania. 700 apartments at Alby in Botkyrka. As seen from my walk along Stendalspromenaden last weekend. You would have a magnificent view from up there. If you have 2 000 000 SEK to spare there are still a few available apartments here.

The military bridge

Militärbron
This is the bridge at Flottsbrokanalen, between Tullingesjön and Albysjön. The canal is four hundred meters long. The bridge was constructed by the military from Ing 1 back in 1975 and is sometimes called "Militärbron". Before the bridge was built there was a pontoon bridge here. And before that this was a part of Göta landsväg, (highway), a road that dates back to medieval days. It was the only road that connected Stockholm to the south of the country.

Boating with the Christina

Boating with the Christina Boating with the Christina Christina boating on the Christina
A wooden boat on the canal between Tullingesjön and Albysjön in Botkyrka. Built in Germany by Fr. Lürssen in Aumund Vegesack back in 1920. The material used is oak and mahogany. The owner waving to me is Bengt Larsson who bought the boat back in 2004. The renovation work took nearly a decade. The boat is today listed as a cultural relic. Bengt named the boat after his wife. Two earlier names are Möwe och Lathifa. Snapped these photos while out walking on a promenade called Stendalspromenaden a few days ago.
