this little piggy ...

was left all alone on the box.

No one was playing on this day so we don't get to see the huge chess pieces that accompany this board. They are kept in the boxes that are by the sides.

School's out

Exams are over and I'm done with school for this semester. Been busy the past week and haven't been able to catch up on my blog till today. Time to enjoy the Finnish summer while I work full-time for the hols. But it's not that bad since I work close to Kaivopuisto and near the sea. Beautiful days to look forward too...

Kaivopuisto 3

Another place not in use. These toilets are always shut. If someone needs the loo in the park, there is a coin - operated cubicle about 100m from here.

Kaivopuisto 2

Haven't seen this stage in use at all. Weird to have such a place in the middle of a park.

Kaivopuisto playground. No kids around as it was taken on a weekday at about 1pm.
