WIND FROM SIBERIA



It brought snow last night. Going on the ice with "potkukelkka", it is very quick sledge of a kind. The sound of ice is like whales singing when it breaks and becomes stronger reaching longer to the shores. Going over the cracks takes a bit of courage when the ice moves slowly. But the cracks are very tiny. Got red cheeks. Please dear wind, tell greetings to the beautiful landscapes of Siberia next time you pass by there!

(Pictures from a video I took. There one can hear the ice breaking from distance if listening very carefully.)

    this sounds exactly like what i want to be doing. i hope the winds bring cold weather when i'm on my christmas trip. waiting to take the first journey with potkukelkka this winter.

    greetings from darkening evening, when the snow falls very slowly and a beetroot pie is in the oven.

    I hope I could take all of you for a small tour. Half would sit on the benches of "potkukelkka" and the rest would make the speed with their feet. When tired, we would change places. Have good week all of you!
