vappu day was today. yesterday. gone midnight. thousands of drunken finns. everywhere. shame the rain came. kids with families walking around and heading too and from the park. high school students celebrating by getting drunk. university students getting drunk while wearing truely bizarre overalls (some of which can be seen in the pic..)
everyone who has graduated highschool was wearing the white hat, including some statues. a really cool sight, espically for me as an irish person. when ever there is (in ireland) exam results or graduations they usually involve a small proportion of the population. here everyone one seems to relish celebration of their eduction (and an excuse for a day off and some alcahol)
