It was a wonderful morning! It started very windy but sunny and beautiful. Wind has been around 15 m/s the whole day and at the moment (5.30 PM) waves are becoming higher.

We had breakfast outside in front of the lighthouse. We tried to found a corner where wind blowed as little as possible. We sat there and enjoyed exellent view with the cup of coffee. Wind has been from southeast.

We are still having problems with technical equipments (for example the people on the mainland have not been able to include our many photos yet in the stories - sorry!). Otherwise everything is going fine.

Only few of the seals have returned to Märket. We saw 10-20 seals on a little rock westside of the island.

Outi reading in the shelter.

Today afternoon we have been working inside the lighthouse. Because of the wind it is impossible to do anything outside. At half past three it started to rain.

We made a trip to cellar, where we saw of all kind of old cellarstuff and small sauna (one man at time fits to sit there), which should be one of the first things to repare.

After the trip to cellar we started with the attic room, where I have been sleeping. We cleaned the room up and reorganized furnitures and old books and magazines. Now it is much nicer to stay there.

During the cleaning of the place we have noticed that people who have spent time here during the last years have left all empty bottles here and there is a few hundred of them. It is kind of sad. Now it is our job to take them away from this island.

However, it still feels that we are in the middle of a quite unique experience.
