It's midsummer eve in Finland. The sun rose in Helsinki at 3.56 am this morning and will not set until 10.49 pm. That's almost nineteen hours of daylight!
Midsummer is one of the biggest celebrations in Finland. The cities get deserted as everyone heads to their summer cottage by the lake.
If you have a life list - things to do before you die - you should add the Finnish midsummer to the list of things to experience. The white nights are magical.
Here in Joburg it's mid winter and business as usual...
