Sunny stories of a Finnish family in Andalucia -. Monday, June 27, 2011. Midsummer is celebrated here as Noche de San Juan and was held on 23rd of June. On that night people gathers to beach and has bonfires and BBQ's. At midnight everyone goes to sea to " wash up" their sins and bad spirits away. Loads of fun I heard and lots of people. Also it brings good luck for the following year if you jump over the bonfire 3 times. I wonder how many burn accidents they have here. ). Still couldnt see anything!

So instead, we went Ice-Skating! And it was FUN! I have not personally skated for years, but as everyone who is Finnish, I do know how to. Atleast a little bit:). Patrik s...
