This beautiful card arrived today from Lotta in Finland. It was snowing when Lotta wrote our card and was very cold outside!

Lotta translated some words for us which tell us what the pictures on the front of the post card are of!

Loimijoki = A river

Huittisten kirkko – The Church of Huittinen

Kaupungintalo – Town Hall.

This card travelled 15,850 Kilometres over 14 days to land in our mailbox!

Kittos Lotta!

Santa’s sack is still quite full, so it looks like he still has a long night ahead of him! Kiitos Kaija for the beautiful card!

This card travelled 15,800 kilometres over 15 days to get to us!

This card was sent to us by Johanna who lives in Finland. She chose this card to send us as it shows Moomi Characters in an artistic way. Moomi Characters were created by a Finish author called Tove Jansson and have been made into a TV series.

Johanna also showed us how to write a few Finish words they are:

Kiitos – Thank you

Joulu – Christmas

Kortti – Card and

Hyvää huomenta – Good Morning!

We have also found some other words to write in Finish such as:

Talo – house

Koira – dog

Kirja – book

This card travelled 15,747 Kilometres over 14 days to get to us!
