Perhaps because I had a fine day for my visit to Karlskrona I left with a better impression than Paul. I found the new museum on Stumholmen very interesting, and toured around the Kungshall bastion on that island before returning to Trosso to see the listed buildings there. The colourful wooden cottages of Bjorkholmen were most attractive.

I then went to Fisktorget and joined a harbour cruise for the afternoon and visited the Drottningskar citadel, Kungsholmen fortress, Ljungskar magazine, Godnatt tower and Koholmen while enjoying a high degree of comfort.
