Winter-swimming is a weapon against dark world

At Veittijärvi again after works.
Hubby there with me. Nice to sit and chat (or just sit quietly) in sauna benches with friendly people.

In the finnish news there has been disqussion about how the snowless winter affects people’s minds. Increasing all king of depressions.

Dark it is, but amount of daylight is already 10 hours at this level, from 7.36 to 17.41. It is far more than in the end of December - as we only have few hours daylight time - and in this same darkness there is some other nations too, to be honest. For excample scots, even though they live more south... Of course in normal winter the exterior is lightened here, due snow.

I find this interesting world map. You can see the
dark sites and light pollution areas of the world here. And glimpse of the European area in the extra. Oh yes, darker there is in the map, darker it is in the real life.

Heading to good night sleep after bathing in +96,4c smoked sauna and swimming in cold water +2,2c.
