17

Our niece Lotta will turn 17 next week, we were at her birthday party today. She is very talented musician, she got a new beautiful sounding guitar for her birthday present.

Today in Finland we have also been celebrating Minna Canth's birthday and the Social Equity day. Minna Canth was the first Finnish-speaking female writer and journalist. She was also the first woman to be given an official flag-raising day in Finland. In her writings, she discussed temperance, female perspective, freedom of religion, the role of the Finnish language, socialism and gender ethics.


At 8:30 p.m. we turned off lights and played the Scrabble with the candlelight. http://www.worldwildlife.org/pages/earth-hour
