Conference dinner (19.30, Wednesday, September 21, starting from Lilla Bommen, small harbor in the heart of Gothenburg, near Gothenburg Opera house):

Archipelago cruise on board of M/S Lasse Dahlquist (http://www.stromma.se/en/Skargard/Borjessons/Our-ships/MS-Lasse-Dahlquist/) - you will be cruising on waterways in the beautiful south archipelago of Gothenburg. During the evening you will pass several of the well-known Swedish west coast islands including Brännö, Donsö, Styrsö and Känsö.

Archipelago Buffet: Three sorts of bread, cheddar cheese and butter. Five sorts of pickled herring, pickled herring potatoes. Egg halves with seafood mayonnaise, pickled herring cake. Herb- and garlic cooked mussels, fresh shrimps and sweet water crayfish (served with complimentary sauces). Cold- smoked salmon, hot-smoked salmon, cured salmon, smoked fillet of mackerel. Seafood pate, hot- smoked goose breast and Italian salami. Västerbotten cheese pie. Creamy sea food salad. ”Janssons frestelse” (potatoes, onion and anchovies baked in cream), meatballs. The buffet is complimented with beer, white and red wine.
