Yesterday I walked for almost two hours in Sipoonkorpi National Park, in the swamps west of Viirilä. It has rained quite a lot, so the swamps are getting wet. There was a thunderstorm passing by during the walk, with heavy rain. The temperature dropped from +17 °C to +11 °C, and I got soaked.
This reminds me that I should apply a new water-repellent treatment to my old jacket, it gets wet too easily. And I should wash it also, it got quite dirty during the walk.
I have got over nine hours of exercise this week, which is good. Next week seems to be rainy, but I have got used to riding the bicycle while it rains.
The photographs were taken in Vaakkoi on July 29th.
