Helsinki-day

At 12th of June, 1812, Helsinki was made the capital of Finland by the order of Czar Alexander I of Russia, to reduce the cultural influence of Sweden in Finnish population, as Finland was part of Russia back then. Now, at 12th of June, 2012, Helsinki celebrated its 200 years as the capital of Finland. We were there. With cameras.

Dad was bouncing up and down, even dancing, if you might call it so, as the child’s mother was constantly trying to restrain the father’s enthusiasm.
I couldn’t help but to notice that he was constantly spinning his wedding ring, moving it back and forth slowly. Does it speak of guilt?
Little devils.

“Son, I am dissappoint.”
Security were rushing to a scene of a fainted audience member. Although the staff keeped on giving people water, dehydration was still present with temperatures rising over 25 celciuses. 25 celcius in Finland is an equilavent of 30+ celcius in Italy, to my experiences, as the climates are so different.
