Here we are with only a little more than two months left in Finland. One thing I'm really going to miss here is our sauna. Every house has one and I read the other day there's almost one sauna for every person in Finland.

Last week we were all sick with the flu and having a nightly (and sometimes daily) sauna was soooo nice. Usually I was joined by my pal, Henry, who had lots of valuable information to impart. For example, if you have have a choice always go with a sauna brush vs. birch branches. They're not as messy and don't sting as much. Thanks, Henry.
