Christmas Eve
In Finland we celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve. Eve & I joined her family at her mother Airi’s place.
Here’s Eve’s mother’s Christmas tree.
Eve & Tiina at Vartiokylänlahti
Eve, Tiina & I went for a brief walk beside Vartiokylänlahti, which Eve’s mother’s home overlooks. It was a lovely day.
In Finland in winter the sun never gets very high in the sky, and views like this of the sun through the trees are typical.

Later in the day we opened our presents. This takes rather a long time…
