Visiting Finland

It is freezing cold with very little snow here. People are bundled up and I have re-learned how to do it as well. It gets dark early and sun rises late. Even at midday it seems quite gloomy. No wonder people learn to be tough and speak rarely. I see a magpie and a greater titmouse outside looking for food. Mother listens to Englerbert Humperdinck: The Way It Used To Be.
