Work started today. The summer vacation is oooooveeeeer. Sniff, it went way too fast... that's what
everyone said at work today. XD Anyways, as much as it sucks to wake up early in the morning and go to work, I missed it too. I felt more energetic today than I've felt in a long time when I'm at home. Just being at home and having nothing special to do is
not good for me, I was starting to feel really down again.
Then again, on my summer vacation trips I felt absolutely wonderful. ^__^ And talking about that, new photos! =D Hollola's medievil market was last weekend! And it just happened that the weather, that's been... unpredictable and quite chilly for weeks, turned blazing hot for the weekend! YAY!

A smith doing his thing. |

Beautiful cast bronze jewelry. |

Some cool smithed chains! |
|
And more smithed stuff. I loooove these. I even got to talking with a smith, told that I'm one too and he told about his education and plans about setting up a new smithy... he was still an apprentice. ^_^ |
|
Dead animals and stuff. X3 |
|
More dead animals and stuff. Bone thingies. =D |

These supercool cyberpunk things! |
|
Swords and axes... well, not real ones, but cool still. |
|
Stuff and a medievil chest... piece for women. XD |
|
The church of Hollola. Beauuuutiful old place. My brother got married here a few years back... well, okay, 4 years. Woah... |
|
Pretty candles. |
|
Statues. ^_^ Even an atheist can appreciate history and art even when it's religious. |
|
Pretty statue at the graveyard. |
|
A beautiful green walkway to an medievil "village". |
|
And the old "village", with lots of old houses, barns and storehouses, they are all really old, moved to this place from Karjala and other places where houses like this have almost all been destroyed. |
|
An old well. |
|
Pretty pretty flower. |

More pretty flowers. |

A PINK tractor (the sign says: "Naive's summer-visiting) |
|
And then the tournament started! |
|
One of the competitors. a young handsome knight. ;D |
|
There was some sword fighting (to the death!) One of the knights fell! Noooooo! |
|
They must have been steaming inside the armour, it was over 30 celsius in the sunlight! |
|
And then some lancefighting! |
|
The champion rushes to his fallen comrade, takes off the helmet and... |
|
It's a woman! HURRAAH! The lovers embrace. Awwwwww! |
|
The knights take a tour around the area. |
|
Ladies singing old Finnish folk songs. |
