Big boat for a small river

This boat has just been brought from Saimaa, the largest lake in Finland. The Seinäjoki -river is a small river so this boat is not going to sail on it. Some local daring entrepreneurs will restore it as a restaurant boat and anchor it somewhere near this place.  They will be busy, cause the plan is to get the restaurant open by midsummer, June 21. I will post more photos as things evolve.

Finnhorse - Suomen hevonen

This is a statue to honor the Finnhorse breed. A horse breed developed fully in Finland. The breed has played an important role as a draught horse and had a lot of responsibilities in the finnish wars. The text in the statue says "Suomenhevonen Suomen Puolesta 1939-1945". "Finnhorse for Finland 1939-1945".

The largest padlock?

These are padlocks on a fence of a bridge. Does the size of the lock represent something?

Taxi headquarters

...not exactly. This is an old rest house for taxi drivers. It's old, but still in use.

This is not a lake

This is the Kyrönjoki -river flooding. What I've been reading this is the biggest flooding for many years. This is really a field and if you look really closely there is a barn standing in the middle of the water.

 This road cannot be taken. At least with a normal car. 

Spring

The blog has been on a winter break. I changed the main topic to properly describe the nature of it. It doesn't have daily photos, so maybe the name should be plain and simple "Photos from Seinäjoki". Maybe I will find some time to dig up the camera and take some more photos soon.
