I'll try this

Excess energy has been spent here. Only regulars are present due to the cold air. Now for a nice Sunday ride in Helsinki – Daigoro is waiting.


Watching women play football for awhile. Boring – they are just training.


Now to the harbour. Ships are everywhere, new ones, old ones, ships being built. And tourists.


Having a cup of tea. Heavy wind blew away my teabag. A kind customer stopped its fly before I made myself look ridiculous chasing it. I call this place Torx – it reminds me of the Torx screw.


Let’s check the tyre pressure and have a little snack at the gas station. 95E gas price seems to be 1.559€ for a litre. Equals to 9.14$ for a US gallon, and 5.59£ for an English gallon.


Ride along a channel. They say that architects succeeded well while creating this residential area. I like it. I once kayaked along this channel when there were none of these buildings – how time flies.


Only one newly washed carpet. It’s quite therapeutic and fun to wash carpets at the seaside when the whether is warm. Some tourists have pitied us for this manual labour. But even washing dishes manually can be ok – it depends on your attitude.
It’s summer but still quite cold. An old saying: Finnish summer is short and only a little snowy.
Now I’m really hungry.
