May, the beginning of Summer Vacation

Upon my return to Oulu, I found that, among other things, the snow and ice have melted!

Students sporting their haalarit

Now this, is Finland.


The white carpet of snow has been replaced by green.

The forest floor is blanketed with mosses and lingonberry plants


Disc golf season is upon us!

At the Meritoppila course, by the sea.
Definitely a very fun course, and very close by.

Jaakko teeing off.  His game went much better than mine (first of the year for me)

We hated to make this guy move; he seemed to be enjoying the view so much. 



An old factory chimney designed by Alvar Aalto.

Sunrise on Pyykösjärvi.  At 2:50 AM.
I hypothesize that there is now enough light to be able to play croquet 24/7.
