Brrr -10°C... Stockholm, from the Djurgården area
The huge ferry in the distance (see note) sails on regular schedules between Sweden and Finland (that is to the Åland Islands and/or to Helsinki). All in all there are approx. 5-10 ferries that sail over the Baltic Sea from at least three other companies. Some even sail to Tallinn, Estonia. All these ferries are combined entertainment ships and freight carriers, mainly of huge motortrucks.
In 1994, a ferry from Estonia sunk with approx. 1000 people on board, of which 852 (officially counted) died. It was by far the deadliest shipwreck disaster ever recorded in peacetime in the Baltic Sea. The big majority of passengers were Swedish, followed by Finnish and Estonian nationalities.
