And pictures in our eyes to get

This morning I walked once again at Pirttimäki, towards south and southwest, walking across Isosuo swamp, circling around lake Sorlampi, and returning via lake Lintulampi. I got almost three hours of exercise today, and 11 1/2 hours this week.

For the world in its wisdom deep and dim

This morning I walked for two hours, starting from Laitamaa, going to lake Kakarlampi, circling around Kakarsberget hill, and returning via lake Myllynpää. Thunder and heavy rain started after I had returned to the car, and there was 5 mm of rain within one hour. I did get quite wet, as the relative humidity was at 100% already before the rain.

Today there is a labour demonstration in Helsinki. I need to go to the dentist.

These photographs were taken at Korkeasaari Zoo on August 5th.
