Christmas is here!

Yesterday was Christmas Eve, which means the big meal, presents and Santa in Finland. We celebrated the Finnish way too, and we had a really good day.

We started off with a swim in the pool out in the warm sun, shopped for food and some last minute presents, cooked for a few hours to get everything ready, had a nap, cooked some more, ate our huge feast (prepared by Minna), went to the sauna, waited for Santa, then sat in the lounge and opened presents around the tree.

Milja had a very Bodyshop Christmas, lots to pamper herself with! I got some very nice shoes, CDs, clothes, books and a swiss army knife among others.

Although today is Christmas Day, for Finns it is spent relaxing, eating the leftovers from yesterday and playing with what we got from Santa.

Merry Christmas to everyone having Christmas today. Enjoy yourselves!
