Juhannus 2007
The longest day of the year is a big summer holiday and celebrated everywhere in Finland. It's called Juhannus. It's similar holiday as what Eli wrote about San Joan..It's not a religious celebration but the name comes from John the Baptist, in Finnish he is called Johannes.
Normally people go to their summer cabins, as I couldn't I had to spend it in the city and this is what we did:
I'm admiring the midnight sun.
We had the perfect weather for Juhannus.
Laura, don't hurt the flower!
I'm taking a closer look at the flowers and seeing if the flowers are alright.
Who ever said 22 year olds are too old to play in swings?
..As you can see...
..We still love to swing..
..And we can say it loud and proud!
This looks like a sunset, but no worries the sun didn't set.

We arrived to the beach and the atmosphere was of course excellent.
At midnight everyone comes to look the bonfire.
Our beach has more pinetrees than most places.
Laura was starting her birthday celebration dance already even if the actual party was on the next day. Well sometimes you can't help the boogie..I had to let her groove.
23.6.2007
So the next day Laura was celebrating her 22nd birthday! I had dressed for the occation, we had an Almost Famous theme party!!
This is the birthday card I painted her.
Oh, what a useful gift I had found her, a tray..she found use for it immediately =)
By the way, Laura, I'm waiting for your comments, if you liked the novel I got you at all.
It was the such a cool party I left on the next morning..luckily I didn't wake up under a boat, like you did =P
This has been the most chilled out time I've written my blog, because I listened to radio helsinki and they played dub music for two hours, now I had to stop though because it's changing to a rap music show..crap!

LAST NITE
she said oh baby I feel so down
and you turn me off, when I feel left out
So I, I turned around Oh baby going to be alright,
it was a great big lie Cause I left that night











So yes this was my last night in Scotland..

I guess I have to change the name of my blog.

The best way to end our trip was of course having chocolate muffins!



The natural history museum






the royal mile


We're on the top and I felt very dizzy when looking down.


We decided to climb up on the top of the Scott monument
The following day we stayed in Edinburgh. We loved being there and sang "i love this city" all day
