Monday – Thursday – preparations continue
Preparations continued, the weather was quite bad on Monday, and we didn’t get in to action yet, as only few planes went flying. My time went mostly with wondering the settings of my new PC and thinking why Adobe does things the way it does. I just would like to use my old CS2 and activate it, but it seems that they aren’t interested of so old systems.
As the weather on Monday was so bad, I left to Helsinki in the afternoon, and had a nice dinner in the evening at Helsinki center. I assume it will be last Nepalese dinner for a while. Tuesday morning brought some peculiar news as it was snowing in Räyskälä! There were quite many surprised comments on our foreign pilot facebook pages. Also my hairdresser said “guess how many people want to talk about this weather during the day”. I guessed correctly that the amount would be equal to the customers they had that day.
I was glad that snow melted during the day, so I was able to drive to Räyskälä safely with competition magazines which we had done last week with Jukka Taipalus. Well, he was the designer and I checked the content and ordered the printing. The end result of the magazine was really nice. Not as funky as I hoped for, but the style is more Scandinavian stylish and not too busy.
Tuesday evening when I was washing my dishes at Räyskälä, I could put my basic Spanish skills into practice at the dish washing place…the Argentinian team was there washing their salad ingredients and I was proud as I could say Good Evening to them in Spanish. We talked also about washing the vegetables, and is it necessary in Finland. I told them that usually we don’t wash salads which are grown in Finnish green houses, as we consider those to be quite clean.
Hmm..after Tuesday we had only two flying days, but during the days I was busy with my computer, the website and setting up the routines with Visa – the other member of the communications team – I better fast forward my story until Friday at this point, as nothing interesting happened during those days.
