Back home!

A run down of our wonderful holiday in Finland, 2010.



We arrived home on Thursday 29th July, after the most fantastic holiday ever :-) It's not an exaggeration to say so, but we'd all love to still be in fantastic Finland.
We have had the best possible weather, the most wonderful accommodation- I chose very well- an amazing journey from Scotland, via the Netherlands and Germany to Finland, then back via Sweden, Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands, the company of our families and friends along the way that made the holiday exceptional in all aspects. Thank you to all who made us feel so welcome !

Special thanks to our wonderful friends Jyrki and Mari in Varkaus for all their kindness once again, to Mika and his wife Virpi in Lehmo for taking us to Koli National Park, to Sari and all her family in Mäntsälä for their welcome on our arrival in Finland. In addition, thanks to Anna-Lena and her husband Claes-Erik in Sweden for welcoming us to their house close to Grimsas, and to Ole Flemming and his wife Jette, for joining us there for lunch. The Schoolovision and Snapshot of Europe projects I have done have allowed us to meet some lovely people!

Finally, thanks to my mum and dad and brother Keith who joined us in Finland, as well as all of Anna's family, who I know also had a great time with us during the second week!

Thank you for sharing, Finland seems to be a fantastic place. I did enjoy to meet you and hope to see you again. After such a holiday there will be a lot to tell the other kids back home.
Kind regards from Denmark.
