Saturday 1st March
While we were up the Näsinneula observation tower, H spotted a couple of dots moving across the ice on the lake. We realised they were skaters. Then, like when you look at the stars, the more we looked the more we saw.
The best, though, was the person absolutely tanking across the ice with a slightly bigger dot weaving around in front of them. They made it out from the shore to the Siilinkaari reef pictured in what seemed like a matter of minutes. What a way to cover distance on ice…



I want a go!

I thought the close up was the Loch Ness monster until I realised what it was

It’s like that picture of the man on Mars.

Nessie, is that you? Aren’t you a bit chilly under all that ice?

I have always wanted a go at that. Just started power kiting, moving on to kite jumping next, so maybe it’ll be kite boarding then that next!
