We also went glow bowling
R was pretty good in it! And so the others too!
I couldn't bowl for long time, since I can't support the movement and heavy ball (I have had wrist tendonitis in both hands and it comes back easily)
Sis and boyfriend making English Christmas cake!
Loads of alcohol, alcohol and alcohol..
It was so GOOD!
If you want a recipe, I can get it for you.
Beware, this cake is really soaked in alcohol for weeks.
I really love the stone wall in the dining area. It's beautiful with the candles.
Christmas morning and the traditional breakfast,
rice orridge and fruit soup.
And Christmas dinner
K's English cracker for Christmas!
Yes we are really international family, R is french and my sisters boyfriend is English.
We also went nordic skiing, directly from the front yard.
Ready, steady, pose!
So with these images, our trip has come to an end.
We enjoyed the trip a lot, Finland - we will see you again at summer 2013!
And my next trip will be.... Barcelona!
I booked flights for a hen party this summer, Barca here I come at summer!
Wow, it looks like you really had a fun Christmas, and the mousse looks great too, not forgetting to mention the English Cake . I've never seen glow bowling but it looks like fun. Finland looks so beautiful and maybe I shall put it on my list of places to visit one day. Enjoy the New Year.

Kiitos :) No itsellänikin tule taas koti-ikävä kun näitä katselee, liian harvoin pääsee kotiin käymään. Käytkö itse usein Suomessa?
DeleteHeippa taas,
DeleteItse kayn Suomessa kerran vuodessa :) Useammin tekisi mieli kayda ja siksi varmasti koti-ikava vaivaa mua aina silloin talloin. Taalta on lennot aika hinnakkaat ja ihan yhdeksi viikoksi ei kannata lahtea, kun matkoihin menee aikaa. Joulua en ole viettanyt Suomessa kolmeen vuoteen eli tana vuonna on kylla ihan pakko paasta jouluksi kotiin :)!!! Kysyit tuossa jossain aiemmin, onko mulla blogia. Oli pitkaankin, mutta lopetin sen kirjoittamisen reilu vuosi sitten ja suljin. Nyt on taas alkanut mieli alkaa kirjoittaa ja oon miettinyt, etta aloittaisin ihan uuden blogin. Laitan osoitteen tulemaan, kun saan sen pystyyn :)Kirjoittaminen oli tosi kivaa ja omia postauksia oli mukava lukea jalkeen pain myos, ja blogin kautta tutustuin myos moniin mukaviin ulkosuomalaisiin :)
Mukavaa sunnuntaita x
