New pictures...

There are some new pictures in the Picture Gallery 3. I have a new folder: "Juhannus ~Midsommaren 2006" where there are few pictures of my dogs relaxing. It has been warm in the past week and the dogs are just resting and trying to find the coollest place in the house.
Juhannus in a festivity that is celebrated in the Nordic coutries in the mid of the summer. The festivities in Finland contains going to a sauna, burning a big bonfire (if the weather permits), grilling food outside and just having fun with family and friends. The festivities are held at the Eve of the Midsummer Day (just like we celebrate Christmas at the Christmas Eve unlike the people in the UK, US and other Commonwealth coutries). Our summer is special because the sun doesn't set during the mid of the summer. It is light all nigth, so sleeping can be a bit difficult.
I hope you all a very happy weekend ! WE are here celebrating the Midsummer's Eve !!!

Hi first time here, Like the page set up. Coming from the uk it would be so strange to not have a dark night.
