We get a reindeer!

There was a lonely large wooden sleigh at the bottom of the garden in Kampitie.

Annikki has been wondering what to do with it for several years.

It used to be the sleigh that her father used to go to the forest with in winter, pulling it behind his mopo, so as to collect wood to heat the house.

Knowing Annikki, when I saw it emerge from the depths to the beachside, I knew that she had something in mind.

Then, with great resolve she said that we are going to get a reindeer.

And yesterday was D-Day. After hunting high and low, she got the only one which was available in Oulu. Our cat, Iitu was thrilled to have this new companion.

So we now have a reindeer pulling the sleigh in the garden.
