Last Week - I managed to do so MUCH!
I'm finally home!
First of I wanted to say I'm sorry, I haven't posted in over a week, it feels awful of me, but thanks to eSteem the phone app I have been able to vote and comment regularly during my time away, so I haven't been totally offline.
I have been traveling around with bus and car a lot last week to meet some of the people I normally don't have time to meet up with, I have spent so many hours in the bus so it's gonna be nice spending some time at home, and since I haven't had the time/motivation to write anything I now decided to tell you guys about what I did last week.
Visiting my old man
I don't meet my old man too often so I went to see him in Parainen, but the bus from __Helsinki__ only take you to __Turku__ and from there you have to take another bus to __Parainen__, so before taking the bus I went to meet with a couple friends. As I arrived in Parainen I met more friends, fellow steemians actually, afterwards I went to stay at my cancer fighting old man's place for a few days.
He have a really good attitude and is doing okay so it was nice spending some time with him, we played some games and drank beer and just talked with each other. The same day I where going back to Helsinki my younger brother arrived and we went to see some relatives. My younger brother asked me if he could join me to Helsinki, he needed to buy new clothes and wanted to spend some time away from home, and so we took the bus from Parainen to Turku to Helsinki.
Back in Helsinki with my brother
When arriving in Helsinki there is still a 20 minutes subway ride and 10 minutes bus ride to get home, and when finally home we sat down on the sofa and watched a movie, we were too tired to do anything. Next day we slept way too long then went shopping and suddenly it's evening again, arriving at home staying up all night playing video games together[(Crash Bandicoot for PS4)](https://steemit.com/gaming/@jerry12/game-review-crash-bandicoot-n-sane-trilogy-gameplay).Musical in Tammisaari
Next morning we had to wake up early to get to the bus, my brother was going home to Taalintehdas where we meet again later on in the story. And I had to meet up with my girlfriend for a musical.
So I went to Tammisaari(an old looking small town) and met with my girlfriend, we had some time to kill before the musical, and went for ice cream in the city!
It was about a 300m walk to get there it was so beautiful along the way!
The play was really good, the main character is our friend and also the reason I came went on a musical play, usually I don't attend to these events, but I'm glad I went, the play was great and I forgot to take any pictures during it, until the very end and suddenly at the last second I managed to get a shot.
Afterwards we met with our friend from the play and headed to her place at the center of the city where we also met the rest of the crew from the play. We went out with them for some drinks, it was nice learning to know new people, and theater/musical people are so open and fun to hang with and suddenly it's night again.
Journey continues to Kisko
And next morning once again early up, now to head for [Kisko](https://steemit.com/blog/@jerry12/survived-another-finnish-midsummer) where my girlfriend and her parents have their summer cottage, I wrote about it earlier in a post if you're interested.We only went to Kisko to get my mother in law and from there to Taalintehdas to get their dog, which I also wrote about. We picked up 'Joda' the dog and went to visit my mother which live in Taalintehdas where I grew up.
Dog meeting in Taalintehdas!
And arriving at my mothers house Joda met my mothers dog for the first time, and Joda who is about 10 weeks old is really energetic and playful and went crazy meeting my mothers dog 'Vilda', who takes it really easy because she is with puppies! Well anyway here are some shots and a gif of the dogs together:
We stayed for dinner and then headed back to Kisko...
Heading back to Kisko
Back at Kisko we sat fire in Sauna and took it easy with a few beers and some music.Next morning we finally jumped on the bus back home to Helsinki!
And so we get to this very moment as I am sitting here writing this far too F**kn long text...
If any of you read the whole story I'm grateful, but hopefully you at least enjoyed the pictures and the meter long scroll-through! Thanks, until next time, have a great day!

In a road trip
Thanks! The best part is now that I have visited everyone I can stay at home infront of my computer without feeling any guilt. :) Soon enough I'll become bored at sitting home and head back out on new adventures! :D
So true!
Thanks man, feels great being back! Yea it was nice meeting with everyone and all that, but it feels soo good being back home again!
Sounds like you had a lot of traveling yes, but also some really great times! Those dogs are waaay to cute, you have to post some pictures of the puppies when they are born ^_^ ! What is the play at Raseborgs sommarteater this year? I love the place, I used to go there when I was younger. And I remember that I have been jumping in that big blue whale too when I was about 7 years old! I did not at all expect a post from Finland when I clicked at the headline. Nice to find some more steemers from Finland! :)
Interesting post! The photos have come out really nice! I am in love with your dogs :D

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it, I was worried about the pictures being all blurry when most of them were taken from inside the car, but turned out fine! :)
I'll post about the puppies later if everything goes well.
No need for the 'caps lock' but, thanks.
Haha, I'm glad you found my post! It's indeed nice meeting fellow Swedish speaking Fins, please correct me if I'm wrong but I assume you're Swedish speaking if you watched Raseborgs sommarteater at younger age.
I'm going to Portugal after a week but after that I'll go to see the puppies if everything goes well, :) and I'll write a post about it.
Nice meeting you @mialinnea! Until next time!
Thanks! It's very relaxing and beautiful.
Haha, thank you my friend, such nice words.
Free I'll always be.
Thank you for the support! Indeed I had lots of fun, but it's great to be home again. :)
No, you are completely right! :) Hope you have a nice trip to Portugal! See you around!
