This has been a perfect day! The first wall of the lighthouse was painted and the bright red and white stripes look ever so great.

Kaj tore down the sheets of metal roof from the engine room building, which was a huge job. In the meanwhile, the others were trying to avoid the falling parts of the roof. Anne and Kristiina washed the first wall of the same building and took down the old windows. The whole team worked hard the whole day and duties continued until eight o’clock in the evening.

The whole team is pretty tired after a long and strenuous day and will just be getting under the sheets soon.
