2010-07-24 Sightseeing

Last night we got the message from Sigurds dad that tomorrow was going to be a windy day, the radio and the internet told us the same. We decided that we were waking up 7.00 and check the weather. It had been blowing all night and it continued the whole day, so we took a day off. After 10.00 we went up and cooked porridge indoors. We were camping on Tarjas, a friend of Eeva, backyard and she had been kind enough to let us use the kitchen and toilet. The wind was blowing 14 m/s against but we didnt notice when we were sightseeing in Suomenlinna/Sveaborg. Sveaborg is an old fortress that has belong to first Sweden then Russia and finally Finland. Exciting tunnels and cannons combined with more modern warobjects as a submarine made this day very nice. In between all this sightseeing we had the time to eat pizza and a whole lot of icecreams. In the evening we met up with our good friend from school, Stefan who lives and works in Helsinki during this summer. We ate some food and drank some beers and talked about the summer which ended this day. A good day though we didnt paddle one meter.

Wind: 14 m/s ENE
