  I get to support 2 ice hockey teams - Edinburgh Capitals back home in Scotland, and Ingolstadt here in Bavaria. Then my son's team of course (Edinburgh University Eagles). That's the most expensive bit.

    Your Ingolstadt lost in quarterfinals, I checked, there were some link trobles in EUE, could see the results. It was a thriller yesterday, the game lasted 108:39. Now Ässät (from Pori) have winning possibility tomorrow. Thanks for visiting here in Tampere :)

    Hmm.. I just recalled that pork and blood are not so good in your corners, right.

    Do you mean in my country? I have tried the Babi Guling in Bali, its a rice dish with roasted pork and together with some blood sausage added. Its very popular dish in Bali. Chinese do eat pork blood curd, cut them into pieces and add into "Curry Mee" and "Yam Rice".

  Love blood sausages, yum! You said people swim and sunbathe in the park around the old tower. How hot does it get during the summer in Finland? BTW, love the tips and photos. Cheers!

  The only time I've been to real Finnish sauna was in Tampere; the experience was unforgettable. It's been great to read about and see photos of your hometown. Bth, thanks for visiting my pages.

  We are very much alike in our love of bridges. I have a large book at home with pictures of a number of bridges from around the world. I am not an engineer and am just amazed how someone builds a bridge of any type.
