Week 20

Hmm not very exciting week, almost want to skip it but ….

The highly heated apartment was bad for the tree…

so we had to get rid of it, as quickly as possible… (no one was harmed during the exercise…but almost)

besides that hmmm… we did the usual cafe stuff (this is an actual gingerbread house)

and of course who can forget… MORE snow

Week 19

All winter all the time

The annual Helsinki Season of Light installation:

In the park out our window it was “good light”

vs. “bad” light (hard to see here but the light had a distinct greenish cast)

and finally: first time on skates:

Week 18

CHRISTMAS!

Christmas Eve… Henry decided to dress for the event

Christmas Morning…time for Santa Claus presents.

Week 17

Back to Tallin with Uggi and V-Nessa (better known as Wine-nessa).

Even more beautiful in the snow… The Albedo effect.
