Back in Finland

The holiday went fine and Stefan's brother's weeding was beatuiful. I was just gonna load up some pictures to an album on pixbox but it didn't work :-( I try again later. We enjoyed Paris a lot and did lot of nice shopping in Normandie and saw also the beatiful coast line.

Stefan and the Atlantic;




Since the holidays we have had company summerparties and friends graduating and it's been Midsummer and we have been babysitting little cute Vasco. I went also on a girl day-cruise to Tallinn yesterday. Summer is lovely but I wish I had more time to hang around and do nothing. I had a look in the calender and we have exactly 2 free weekends until half of september. :-I But hopefully we have time to relax as well.

During Midsummer we were in my parents summercottage with some friends, that was nice and relaxing. Unfortunetly it was pretty cold this year but I am proud to say I went swimming :-)...after some Sauna!

Me and Vasco during midsummer;




I'm gonna post also this song since it always make me think of lazy late summernights on the counrtyside;

Getting in the Holiday Mood

This morning started horrible, I went out and noticed it was raining and I had only a t-shirt and a summerjacket so I had to go back home and get some more clothes because it was cold (or almost home cause Stefan was nice enough to bring them down) . During that time I missed 2 buses. When I finally caught the bus I hit my head when I was supposed to sit down. And then when getting off the bus I twisted my ancle.

Luckily it is holiday sooon! Today I worked for longer to finish most things before my holiday week. I'm getting in the holiday mood now and starting to relax little by little:-)

When finally home from work I made my dad's special sandwhich to empty the fridge as we are gonna be away for a week;

Some Finnish rye bread;


with mustard, ham, cucumber, tomatoes, some cheese on top and a bit of oregano. This you put in the microwave so the cheese meltes and it's yammi :-)

While eating it I watched with one eye, believe it or not Serrano Family or Serrano Perhe as it's called in Finland.

It just happened to be on when I turned on the TV and it was perfectly braindead for a day like today. It feels comletely like a Friday now even if we are only Wednesday.

After that I took another step in the relaxing process and read my newspaper in calmness but in the end I got a bit restless and decided that some jogging would be nice even if it's raining. So I put on some Veronica Maggio and went running.



It was perfect jogging weather and perfect jogging music. In the beginning of the week it was about 30 degrees and it was too hot to do anything, I couldn't even sleep.

The perfect ending of the day was however to come home and go to sauna.

In two days we are flying to Paris, what could be better than that :-)
