daddy drove Vaski to Heinola last thursday so we can stay there over the weekend. they had a street food festival and free concerts for kids and adults.
i joined the group just on saturday because i wanted to have some relaxing alone time at home.
i took the bus from Lahti to Heinola. it brought back memories to me when i was still working in Matkakeidas and taking the bus every day to work.
it was raining very hard when i arrived in Heinola. i took refuge under the bridge until the rain calmed down, then i went to join the group in Vaski.
my mood was as dark as the weather. but it got better as time went by...just like the weather 😁
we went to visit the museum. after that, we went to the street food alley. i just had a burger.
when Esa and Juli came, we had coffee near the harbor. then we drove with them to Siltasaari to have another cup of coffee. Siltasaari is like heaven to me. i mean, i can stay there all day and have coffee, read a book or just stare at the scenery. i love the place!
the kids love it, too! there were so many interesting things and they were running around which made the adults very nervous.
we also walked beside the railway...it was a very nice experience to me. and you know what, one of these days, i will go back to Heinola and visit those places again.
we went to the water tower. i visited that place 3 or 4 years ago...i thought that time that there isn't any other place to visit in Heinola. but i was wrong! i know now that i was wrong! in fact, i'm so ready to move and live in Heinola 😁
sunday.
i woke up at 8 and made breakfast. after i was done making food, people were still sleeping so i went to take a walk with Fasu.
after breakfast, we watched the concert for the kids. oh, how they loved it! kids were dancing and jumping in front of the stage. it's really nice that they organized something like that for the kids, too!
we had lunch and then we went back to watch Samae Koskinen's performance. i really love his cool voice and his songs.
after the Turku group left, we listened to Maija Vilkkumaa's songs. we didn't go in the theater area anymore because it was full and Juli wanted to go to the playground. i accompanied her in the kid's area.
when we said our goodbyes to Esa and Juli, i drove dodge to Kalkkinen and daddy drove Vaski to the same destination. i hated the road to Kalkkinen. i wonder how i survived driving there yesterday. it was like a roller coaster ride.
it took about 40 minutes to drive dodge from Heinola to Kalkkinen. for daddy and Vaski, it took 2 hours. Fasu and i waited for them at the harbor in Kalkkinen. we ate carrots. i read the book that i bought from the second-hand shop in Heinola while Fasu took a nap.
when daddy and Vaski came, we had dinner there and drove with dodge back to Lahti. we left Vaski at the harbor because it's still a long drive by boat back to Lahti.
it was a very nice weekend! a bit stressful at times. but i will hold on to the nice stuffs 😁
