A bit of a cloudy and windy weather greeted us in the morning. After the breakfast made for us by Anne and Kristina everyone scattered around to their duties. Kaj continued painting the lighthouse tower with Ari, while Anne and Kristina started to plaster the warehouse. Jussi continued making the wooden bases for beds. Tarja and Markku decided to move their beds inside the lighthouse after sleeping the whole week outside in a tent.

We had no visitors on Märket today so it was possible for the kitchen team Anna, Nina and Tarja, to concentrate on taking care of our construction team.

At noon weather turned just splendid, the wind died out and the sun shined from the clear blue sky giving us a great chance to go for a swim in the lagoon or in the sea. Afterwards the wind started to blow again just in time to dry our towels.

A bit of a sad feeling as we have to leave this magnificent island tomorrow . On the other hand, such a small lighthouse island holds a lot of feelings and emotions of which are mostly connected to the mainland.

We finished our adventurous time with a small get-together. Having some delicious pork steaks together with some wonderful salad and a glass of red wine.

Thank you Märket for a wonderful time and a great team. Gosh, it has been lots of fun as well as hard work.

Märket,
We can feel your warm winds, ever close to our skins
And the waves on cliffs are a sight to be seen.
We can close our eyes and we`re back here. We can see the stripes that we love so dear
And we know you will still be here for us
turning into a memory when we´ll go home
When we hold you close to our hearts and we can see your shine still,
Softly whispering I love You

Our team signing out from Märket. With love xoxo ILYSVVM


Will there be a breath, a reflection of us, after we are gone...
