Long and hard weekend is started



On Monday it is the first of May, a great Finnish party called Vappu. Students started already yesterday, and other enthusiastic ravers started today. But, as you can see, no ice anymore ;-) compare with 25th photo.

  1. Sounds like a fun time of year. How long does the Vappu last?

  2. For engineering students, Wappu starts roughly one week before the actual first of May and ends when everyone is exhausted to the max - which is roughly one week after the date.

    Btw, we (Pastanjauhajat) were yesterday enjoying cold beers on that same terrace at the left side of the picture - not in the picture, though.

  3. I enjoyed that comparison shot - even before reading your post, I scrolled down after recalling seeing a similar photo - nice touch!

  4. Good contrast between the old houses and the new ones.
