Bye bye Helsinki

Netta finished her job on Wednesday and we could leave Helsinki. We had found some time the previous day to buy some good clothes, a first-aid kit and some cooking equipment in a specialized shop. We still are missing some, but we know a good shop in France too.
I checked carefully on our To-Do list, but resting wasn’t on it … on Wed, we had to drive to Savonlinna, and on Thursday, unpack the car, start to sort our stuff in a clever way (what we need, what can stay). We managed to get our International Driver Permits too. And since we were in town, more papers with the Maistraatti, and some shopping for Christmas.

I also started to get some problems with my new eee PC. The lack of space on the root partition didn’t go well with the automatic updates, and lots of various stuff stopped working. Since I was already unhappy with the default interface (AsusLauncher), I decided to get rid of the whole system, and installed Ubuntu eee.
I take advantage of the situation to test a few things, like the new camera and the album generation. You might also notice a new functionality: it will be possible to us from now on to write articles in more than one language, for your comfort.
