Hello mom!


There were today some strawberries on the kitchen table.



I tasted them, and because they were so good, I invited others to come and eat them, too.



And we ate them... we ate a lot...



Oh my... uuups... we ate them ALL... Hopefully hostmom will not be mad, because we ate them ALL...



Love,

(P.S: Hostmom wasn't mad, so don't be worry about me, mommy!)

Hello mommy!

It’s juhannusaatto (Midsummer’s Eve) today. I saw something really exited thing: juhannuskokko (a Midsummer bonfire)! It was so cool.

Here are some info about Midsummer celebrations in Finland:

"In the Finnish midsummer celebration rituals include bonfires, cookouts, a sauna and spending time together. Bonfires are very common and are burnt at lakesides and by the sea. In folk magic, midsummer is a very potent night and the time for many small rituals, mostly for young maidens seeking suitors and fertility. An important feature of the midsummer in Finland is the white night and the midnight sun. Because of Finland's location spanning around the Arctic Circle the nights near the midsumme day are short or non-existent (in Lappland there’s several days when sun doesn’t set at all). This gives a great contrast to the darkness of the winter time."

It was really nice to experience this Finnish celebration.
And mommy, can you believe that these photos have been taken just 1-2 hours before midnight, and there is still not dark at all!!!

Love,
Ronja

Hi mommy!

I visited in the local trainstation, and I saw a very old train there.
They don't use it anymore to travel, but it's a nice statue/decoration in the trainstation.

Hello mommy!

Guess what??? I can go to visit Spain with my current hostmom. She is going there for a holiday and she will take me with her! Wow! 

I put the sunglasses on. Look, it's little bit big! Hih... 

I helped hostmom to pack her things. And I said 'bye bye' to Kurnau, because he will stay at home. Hostmom thought that someone has to stay at home, just in case, if any toy will come here between those days when we are abroad.

Oh, tomorrow we will leave. I'm so exited!

Mommy, I will tell you later, what happened in Spain...

Hello mom!

I'm here, in the airport of Jyväskylä.
I'm so exited to start flying and arrive to Spain soon!

Look, mom, the plane in the picture is the plane where we are going. It's quite small plane, because we are going to Helsinki-Vantaa airport first.

Look mommy, do you think these landscapes are marvellous? I think so!

Hello mommy!

I have arrived in Spain now. I'm in the airport of Madrid.

I have travelled so many hours already today, that it's time to eat something. So, I ate a sandwich and drink water.
Look, mommy, there's so funny text in the serviette.



We got a new friend from the airport shop: a blue dinosaur (4th from the left). He is hosmom's the newest ToyVoyager.



Love,

Hello mom!

It was quite late last evening when I arrived here (it was already dark, so I didn't take any photos of this place then). But now I did!

This place is Riviera del Sol, and it's Mijas-Costa, just next to Mediterranean Sea. I'm here about one week with my hostmom and toy friends. This is nice place to spend a holiday. 

These pictures are from our hotel. Is it look nice, mom?

Love,

i Hola !
Hello!

I was walking on the beach of Mijas-Costa, it's a part of the hole beach of Costa del Sol. There were so soft sand. I really liked walking there without any shoes or sandals or something. 

It really feel like summer now!  Sun is shining and it's so warm (about 29 degrees Celsius).



While walking on the beach I found some tiny clams from the ocean.
Are they pretty, mommy?



When I continue walking on the beach, I found this small cave! How cool is that? 
We all went inside to the cave, just because we all toys are too curious, hih. 





Because I wanted to see the big ocean even more better, I decided to climb on the rock. It's the same rock as the cave has.
Other toys climbed there, too.
Mommy, can you see me? I'm on the rock's wall. 



From this picture you should see me better, because it's closer-look photo.







It was very exiting!

After walking on the beach I wanted to enjoy sunshine.
So, I took a sun bath, it was soooooo relaxing!
Mommy, close your eyes, imagine the sound of ocean, and warmth of sun, and just relax... 



While walking back to hotel, I saw a flag of Andalucia (one part of the country Spain), and a flag of Spain.



Love,

i Hola !

In the evening I visited in a zoo named Biopark.
More information about Biopark you can find here: http://www.bioparcfuengirola.es/en

It located in the town named Fuengirola, one of the town in Costa del Sol.

There was amazing in the Biopark!!!  There were so many animals there, and the hole zoo was like a tropical paradise!

I met different monkeys, tigers, alligators, parrots, flamingos, hippos, frogs, snakes, birds... etc.

The most exiting thing was that we all were able to go inside the place where they kept monkeys from Madacascar (the first photo). And when we were there with those monkeys, one of them was interested about hostmom's backbag, and tried to take a look inside of it. Hih!  Maybe the monkey was hungry and searched food from hostmom's bag... Or maybe he was only too curious.      But it was funny thing anyway.

Love,

Hello mommy!

Here you can see a view of town Fuengirola.

I visited many times in Fuengirola, because it was a place where we had to change a bus, if we wanted to visit another cities.

This photo has been taken very near of the bus station of Fuengirola.

i Hola !

Today I visited town named Mijas. It's beautiful small town located more away from the ocean, and more near to the mountains.

Look mommy, how breath-takingly beautiful views there was! 



We all toys found a small nice park. So, we walked there.





I climbed on the tree to see surroundings even better. It was fun!



From the tree I saw a very old church. I wanted to see it better, so I went there, and others came, too.
We are sitting on the wall of the church. Can you see me, mom?



Well, now you can see me for sure! 



Then I walked on small streets of Mijas.
This is one of the street I walked on. Look the background mom, there's a nice mountain there. And if you look very carefully, you can see the white building in the mountain, it's a cathedral.



How nice, they have donkey-taxis in Mijas! I said 'Hello!' to donkeys.



And here is the Plaza de Toros, an arena where have bullfighting shows every week. And guess what mommy?!? We are going to see a bullfighting there! 



At first, there was a flamenco show. It's a typical dance in Spanish culture. It looked nice!



Then I watched the bullfighting. I have to say, the bullfighters were very brave!
