The New Year
The ringing in of the New Year happened in old London town and saw a New Years Eve Eve party with DT, well quiet drinks and dinner turned into a larger night than first intended... as DT was not going to drink. The full moons were put out as an offering to the Sprinkles camp and the ending of the night is a hazy one but it could have possibly end in the mid morning of New Years Eve.
Catching up with old friends was the point of the night for the New Years eve and rest of the next week, the ending of the holiday a little sour as Milja and I never got to say goodbye.

Well I am glad to say I still really do not understand it! Things like the night life are an expensive investment, the catch being this is when the Finns are most friendly & talkative. I will choose to avoid commenting on the nightlife as I know it’s here and I just need the right people to help me find it. So in these first stages I will discuss sights and activities that have occurred over the past month, unfortunately for some I am about to discuss the architecture and cultural things I have discovered so you can possibly skip though to the picture sections of my blog.
