Day 75: He's my man!

Summer vacation ended and it was Sunday. Next morning I would travel to Helsinki. I felt little stressed because vacation was over but my husband didn't take any pressure for that - he was sitting and reading - his favorite hobby.

Day 52: Who is the official Sleepyhead in year 2012?

In Naantali we have this tradition which is beginning from this year also official trademark: Sleepyhead of the year is thrown into cold sea water. Hundreds, maybe even thousands people are waking up early in the morning and watching the poor guy (or girl) getting the cold wake up bathc. So did we and we had done this for several years since moved into Naantali. Think - we are waking up before six in the morning and cycling to old town just for that. Who wants to wake up so early on vacation? Only dummies - I think.

This year I managed to photo how  the official Sleepyhead, the CEO of the Muumimaailma (Moominworld) Tomi Lohikoski,  was thrown into water.

Day 49: How to spend your vacation?

We have this storage in our back yard. There we are storing  lot of stuff like outdoor table and chairs, tires, bicycles, flowerpots, rakes and other gardening tools. Once a year (normally) we carry everything out, clean the storage, get rid of unnecessary things and finally get all back in good order. Last summer we didn't do that since we have this renovation of our back yard going on. So one our planned vacation activity was to clean the storage and that we did!

Day 45: How to celebrate last work day before vacation?

Well - was again this is more issue of "why I am not loosing weight". For some stupid reason I allowed myself to celebrate the start of vacation and I ate one pastry with lot of calories. Too many calories! Far too many! But it was good and vacation has started. Please note that the other one is for my husband whose vacation also started today.
