Sunday morning and day was no surprise to me it was grey and rainy again. In the afternoon there was a hint of light just before it set. We drove to Helsinki and on our way back 16:30 it was dark again. The joys of light.

I was coming to the parking garage from grocery shopping to see sunshine and rain in November 
the afternoon. It was just after 3 PM and the sun was already going down.

walk continues
I love these crooked pine trees that the wind and weather has shaped.
the walk
As we arrived we had to walk through old woods, and rocky paths. As the wind mostly blows from the sea nearly all the trees lean towards inland. The first part of the walk is rather dark and this area has lots of fallen down spruce trees. They are left in the woods to decay as nature intended so the nature will continue to be as diverse as possible.
