Note To Self

Do not listen to Swedish diva anthems when navigating through 2 inches of snow. Strutting and snow do not go well together!

Whats with all the random snow storms today anyway?

Cold Snap

I just want to share a few pics with you. The river here in Turku has been frozen for a while now, and I kpet meaning to take a photo. Friday I missed the bus, so decided to finally go and do it. So here are a selection of the photos taken.

Here Comes The Snow

I thought I'd be getting used to this snow lark. Especially with my funky new snow boots from home (knowing the Finnish equivalent would have cost be €30 or so more makes the boots feel that much better). However yesterday there was a decent couple of hours of snow fall, and so this morning I was slipping and sliding with the best of them again. At least the bus driver seemed to be coping with it ok. The bus home yesterday involved a lot of ... shall we say 'shaky' pull aways. None of the Finns seemed concerned, but I have to say it made me a little nervous.

Anyway, good practice for my trip to Lapland(!) in a fortnight!

(Oh, and Rach, notice the title, did you see what I did there?)

Sugar Cherry Candy World

There is something so incredibly ironic about listening to the following song, whilst walking to work in the dark while its snowing, that you just cant help but smile. Go on, indulge in some terrible summer pop. It might help. Or tip you over the edge...

Its snowed again!

But I'm sick again :(

New Pic

Oh, and check out the new pic ---------->

Thought I'd get rid of the stolen one and add one of my own masterpieces, hehe. Actually really love the pictures I took of Turku in the snow. Will have to share the best ones with you soon.

Let It Snow!

One last quick post before Stockholm...

We have snow in Turku! Lots of it!
