Harry Potter

And here comes another Harry Potter card to my HP collection! I've been a HP fan for about 8 years, and since I don't really like the movies, I prefer these art cards, I really like this style. I started reading the books again some time ago, I'm half way through the Order of the Phoenix right now. It's funny that I don't have patience to read any other books anymore, but HPs always go so fast!

btw, since the purpose of this blog is to show what cards I've got, I'm gonna upload one other HP card I got months ago as an official card from Finland. So it's not new, but since I'm always looking for HP cards, I want people to see all cards I've got just by clicking the "Harry Potter" label. :)

Zakopane, Poland

Another ski jumping card to my collection! The ski jumping summer GP is about to start next weekend, I'm really looking forward to it, it's nice variation since this summer has been so scorching hot. (of course there's no snow, but even in August ski jumping always reminds me of winter! xD)

Thanks Sylwia!

Triglav, Slovenia

Beautiful views from Triglav, which is the highest mountain in Slovenia and also the highest peak of the Julian Alps. It's 2,864 meters high and was first visited in 1778. Thanks again for your nice postcards Ivana!

A postcard from Fort Myers, FL, and some stuff about thunderstorms!

Another beautiful beach postcard from my friend Katya in Florida! Actually right now we're having the hottest day of this summer in Finland. They just said on the news that there's been a new Finnish all-time record of +37,2 celsius (98,6 fahrenheit) in Joensuu, the city in eastern Finland where we visited 2 weeks ago. The last record was +35,9 C and it was measured almost 100 years ago, in 1914, so this is definitely something new! Here in Kalajoki it's been around +33.

We've also had some huge thunderstorms, I like those. Last night we had to switch off all power and internet connections many times because those storms were so huge, and luckily there wasn't any damage. I managed to take some cool pictures and also this video:

I know it doesn't look so cool in this video, but oh my gosh we just freaked out and my eyes hurt many hours after that. I also had to cut few seconds off from the ending because me and my mom were swearing, lol. xD

There are more storms coming later today, I think!

Praha, Czech Republic

A thank you card from Praha, Czech Republic. Thanks so much Lucka!
