Our journey continues through Finland according to the roadbook. Moving for the route is just one part of the adventure. Also we have to make shots about various topics. One of them is “The Finnish lifestyle”.
Finnish Way of Life
The wooden platform with benches is built on the lake.
Gangway
July turns out the hot one. The sky is amusing us with blueness. The roadsides are planted with lupines.
Meadow, forest, water
The big stone had saved the life of three high pines at the felling.
Pines
Little islands on the lakes are decorated with green hats.
Lake

Flowers
From the little bridge we have caught sight of a beard of the merman in the lake.
Seaweed
