I also decided to take some pictures of inside the cottage, just to remember it.
It was a beautiful day and here, you can see down through the trees, to the Finnish Bay.
The kitchen area of our cottage.
The living area.
The bedroom, with double bed, and single bed above.
The bathroom, with very strong shower, which was guaranteed to refresh!
Down at the beach. We had several sessions in the sauna, and Sandy loved thundering down from the cottage to plunge into the water. Once we cooled off, it was great to race back up to the cottage and jump into the sauna again!
Above and below, in the water.
Looking back at the cottage, on a hot summer's day!
Sandy, with his Russian grandparents.
In the afternoon, the temperature was around 27C and we headed down to the Sappoka Water Garden in the centre of Kotka. It's a really beautiful place- click on any of the photos to see them much larger- and I love visiting here. A real oasis in the town!

With Auntie Olga.
By the waterfall.
At the top of the waterfall, Sandy with Dayadushka.
Can you see Baboushka down below, on the bridge?
Two totally contented children, by the water!
With the centre of Kotka in the background- what a beautiful place!
I really do love this wonderful setting.

Olivia loved Santalahti!
The sun sets on the last evening at Santalahti.
