The docks outside Gamla Stan were once filled with filthy smugglers and seductive ladies of the night. In these times, there was a place around the corner where merchants collected bricks and coffee for export. The legacy of this old shipment warehouse remains within the walls of the new jazz and booze den, Bar Brahe.

May 5 - It's a cold, misty morning. The sun will soon bless us with its warmth and the wind will guide us on our adventures. The ship is being packed with the last of our necessities for the long travels - barley, brännvin, peas and salted herring. First stop, Gothenburg.

June 25 -The air feels heavy as we approach New Orleans. It's been a tough month at sea. I've been dreaming of hard liquor and warm company.

August 1 - The travels have been kind this way around. We can see the island of Barbados on the horizon. Next, Bridgetown. I've heard a good deal of stories about this port and its culture. I feel particularly adventurous today. Make it so!

October 17- I feel myself wishing back to our days in the Caribbean. I'm cold, tired and start to lose hope in this expedition. We have lost many of our men the last few days. South point couldn't come sooner. We need new provisions and·a day's rest.

December 3 - We are slowly approaching our furthest destination east. The air feels warm and dry in contrast to the cold water splashing through the gun ports on deck. Yet, I crave a warm beverage and those spices l've heard so much about and never had the pleasure of tasting.
