  • Holiday 2020 Day 12

    And again we had quite a perfect morning for swimming! And for morning walk near the Marjaniemi lighthouse.

    Marjaniemi beach and lighthouse, Hailuoto island

    There is actually an active fishing village beside the lighthouse and a pilot-boat station so it was very interesting walk!

    I made this video of the beach in Hailuoto

    And on the other side of the island there is a weird art-installation called “Organum”. This is a 3 piece echo-chamber in the middle of the forest.
    The artist has made few similar all over the world!
    His name is Lukas Kühne.

    Organum
    Weird place

    Then we started driving… First the idea was to stay on the western coastline but since the weather forecast didn’t promise too nice weather we kind of pointed rendom place on the map and it was Iisalmi. Then we started to find something interesting to see there and we found Korkeakoski. And that was actually located in Maaninka which belongs to Kuopio nowadays. It looked like a very nice place!

    Short stop in Vieremä

    But the drive became also a race against the rain! When we finally arrived to Maaninka it started raining right away. We chose to rent a cabin and we were quite happy that we found very nice one just beside the lake!

    Our cabin for the next 2 nights
    Right after we arrived it really started raining!

    The route for the Day 12 was like this:

  • Tour around Finland Day 8

    gozamite

    The morning started with the visit up to the “mountain” Kaunispää. We took few pictures there and continued to the next mountain (Urupää) and there we chose the “old road” which is called “The magnetic hill”. Long time ago it was difficult for bigger cars to climb up to the hill (especially in the winter) and somebody made up the story that there was strong magnet keeping them down!

    We checked The airport in Ivalo but we only met one reindeer:

    The road between Ivalo and Inari is very enjoyable ride but usually you will meet many rendeers here! We were lucky since we didn’t see any! We also stopped at “Karhunpesäkivi” which is a big boulder with kind of giant’s kettle inside the stone… And you can go there! There are few strange holes in the inside walls of the stone and this made it possible to make up many different stories about what happened and why…
    But it is known that there was a bear in winter hibernation many times long long time ago…

    These stairs lead you to the stone and the stone looks like this (PicBy Puppe100 – Oma teos, CC BY-SA 4.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=71268537) :

    Next time we stopped at the viewing tower of Toivoniemi. It is actually named as a bird watching tower but anyway there’s quite nice view from the tower to the Lapland nature around!

    The actual “Toivoniemi lintutorni” looks like this:

    This you can find near Kaamanen village and there’s also an old airport that was built by German soldiers… or actually their prisoners of war. So still after 70 years there’s nothing but “empty land” in the place where was supposed to be the speedlane:

    From Utsjoki we found our cabin to stay for the next night. We took the luggage away from the bike and continued “naked” to the north…
    There is one museumroad between Utsjoki and Nuorgam. It’s a gravelroad that climbs quite high above the river of Teno and you will have very nice views from there!

    Only few kilometers more north and we were here:
    153728_o
    And because the idea of this tour was to stay in Finland we turned around!!
    Very close there is the road called “Pulmankijärventie“. If you choose this road you will find amazing place without any trees and open landscape everywhere around you!

    This might be the only place in Finland where you can find this kind of view!
    I also had to take a picture of my bike with this bridge (Sami Bridge between Finland and Norway):

    Once again my wife made a video about this day:

    The route for the day 8 was like this:

  • Saimaa Archipelago route

    gozamite

    (In Finnish: Puumalan Saaristoreitti)
    I’ve started my holiday tour 2 days ago. I hope I will have more time to write about details and routes but in this update I want to share this:

    My drone finally arrived from service and I got this video made yesterday!
    This is ferry “Norppa II” and it takes bicycles and motorcycles and makes a ride in the lake Saimaa. Even it wasn’t the best possible weather it was still quite amazing. The beautiful archipelago of Saimaa made me forget even about riding for awhile… I was just sitting on the deck and enjoying the views and summer breeze.

  • Learning to fly

    Trying to make better and better videos of flying (with DJI Mavic)
    Here’s Villa Majvik near my home:

    And second video from the same place… Beautiful weather!
