Today we started with some basic things such as lifting the feet and just walking around. One year old foal Topi was very well behaved and I was happy to have a small dually halter designed by Monty Robert's when training Topi. The dually halter effectively rewards horses for acting in partnership with the handler. The halter is a useful training aid when leading, loading and long-lining.
After the visit to Topi we continued with my friend to Tampaja and went for a short walk with Tesello and washed him. He has really started to enjoy his almost daily showers in the heat.
During the summer I love to have lunch at my favourite Café Wilhelmsdal in Inkoo city. The café is next to the library and a really wonderful place. They serve the best pie there and very good coffee. Next to the café there is a new interior design shop called the 'Pikku Puoti' that recently opened its doors. You can find the most amazing small things for home or as a summery present to friends or relatives from the little shop. Definitely worth a visit. 
Tomorrow I will fly with Air Åland to Åland Islands for the start of the crayfish season. We are meeting there with several girlfriends and hopefully enjoying a few more sunny days and some good fête out there. Really looking forward to it. Now I will enjoy the rest of the evening in the company of my brother, my cousin and a good friend. I feel very blessed.
