Karelian farm house on Seurasaari

Seurasaari is an outdoor museum of Finnish folklore. It has cool old huts and houses and farms and such.

This photo is of a farm house. It was really big. What was neat was seeing some of the detail around the windows and porch. It might look rustic but it was home for a family and the added thoughtful touches that personalized it and added subtle beauty.

Old and New

My friend had this cool ancient record player with her CDs on top. Had to play with the juxtaposition, so I put a CD on the turntable. 🙂

What also was cool was that there were two cups embedded into the area by the turn table – one for new needles and one for used needles. They must’ve gone through needles at a good clip. Interesting.
