Enjoying Winter in Oulu

The temperature was -15 (celsius) yesterday, but it did't stop us to enjoy the winter with my daughter. First we skated at this small ice that had been constructed at the middle of the marketplace square in Oulu. Even if the ice wasn't exactly perfect, the sunshine was so bright that you just could't help to have a smile on your face. At the background there is a huge pile of snow we just had to conquer.

Good luck telling your child not to climb on top these mounds of snow

Later at the same ice, some sort of beer hockey tournament started. The teams were formed by local bars. Then there was this strange team, which had the jerseys of a former NHL player... I really had to squint my eyes, could it be? And what do you know, casually playing among the guys was Janne Niinimaa.

I can imagine this situation when you say to your child ”not to climb on top of snowy mounds”. My kid is only 8-months-old, but I’m waiting the time when “vuorenvallotus” play comes. 😃☝🏽
