Party Down in Imatra Town

Today was our first chance to take in a little of the town square and get some grocery shopping done. We took in a street hockey tournament which afforded us the opportunity to see some sweet Euro mullets. Those things are spreading like a virus over here.  




Unfortunately we were subject to the vile side effects of the continuing border war between Finland and Russia.  As you can see in the next slide there was a walk-by floating at the local picnic spot.  So tragic.


IP is really taking care of us, but we thought the castle was just a bit much.  We told them that we were ok with the apartment, but if we don't get wi-fi soon than we may have to reopen negotiations.  This place is actually a hotel and spa in Imatra.  It is quite nice.

  1. Loving the blog. It's about midnight here. If you ever get up at 7:00 your time, don't hesitate to hit the Skype button....when you get WiFi figured out.

  2. What fun reading about your adventure. I hope you are doing well. We are thinking about you and will stay in touch. Walter and I just got back from our trip and we were ready to get home ! I missed the dogs... I cannot believe I am saying that. School starts tomorrow and I am so thankful I do not have to get up early and start a new year. Keep the pictures coming. I love your new home (castle) except I would really have to have a large staff to keep it clean.
