This has been a day of variable weather. Forenoon there was strong wind (up to 10 m/s), showers from drizzle to moderate strong rain and temperature around 10 degrees.



Around 5 pm we had amaising show on the sky. Clouds arriving from west were changing their shape and so did the colours of sky constantly. Thunder storm clouds passed us from north, but when they will grow above land in Finland, they will form proper lightning.

When the clouds had passed by we had half on hour of sunshine. Then the wind turned 90 degrees to SW. For a moment or two wind was very weak and it was warm. Soon after the strengtened wind was cooling down so effectively that it was cold without gloves. Now at 9 PM sea is not so totally white as it was an hour ago.



Today as well as yesterday we have done plenty of work. We removed toilet products from the rest room. Also a hatch from same room was removed and now the ventilation and light conditions are much better than earlier.

Upper wallpapers were ripped away from one room in the second floor. That should help the wall to dry. Some of the fireplaces were also heated with great luck. No problems with the smoke in the strong wind conditions.



One day with big waves hitting the northern shore of island was almost too much for the about 6 mm thick stainless steel wires which were holding tires i.e. fendars. We removed them, fixed rope to tires and tied tires well to the wavebreaking wall from which they can easily be taken when needed.


During supper we could watch through kitchen window two seals in the eastern end of island!
