LOL!
The other "cabin" is the storage for firewood and the other is a miniature playing house for small kids. My log cabin is not pictured but it's not really "miniature" with 8 bedrooms, 2 saunas, 2 living rooms, etc. Anyhow, enough for comfortable life even in the most remote place.
I have ordered an extension piece from AP Boutique in Singapore and I will get that when I visit them in two weeks. I have always wondered why AP make their bracelets so small... I can wear it as it comes from the factory but it is really tight. I will also pick up my 15202 in two weeks and I ordered the watch with one extra link.
Pictures to follow...

Taking wrist shots for 2015
First of all, I wish all members of PuristSPro a very good new year. I spend together with my family Christmas and New Year in Lapland, some 250 km north of the Polar Circle. I also had an idea... I took several watches with me and bought the new Leica D-...
These pictures were an ad in fact.
It is quite sophisticated and keep in mind that the photos are taken in darkness. I still need to read the instructions but it looks like the camera has developed since my D-Lux 6 and naturally, the new lens is wonderful. Best, Kari
I had earlier
D-Lux 4, 5 & 6 and feel that this new version is the best till now. Especially the lens is stunning. I'm sure that this camera would serve you very well with your watch pictures. Best, Kari
Happy New Year Blomman!
Being a Swede, you are surely familiar with AuroraBorealis. Occasionally those can be seen also in Stockholm and I just heard that a couple of days ago those were visible in Tallinn. However, Arctic is the best place to see these fireworks. Mvh, Kari
Yes, but not often seen in Stockholm....
As far south as Tallinn?! Didn't know that! The safest place to see this phenomena is up in the North part of Sweden of course... Best Blomman
In this issue Finns beat Swedes!
Our Lapland goes further north than yours but Norwegians beat us both. Luckily their north most part is called Finnmark. Best, Kari
Beautiful northern lights
Very well taken Kari! Thanks for sharing and happy New Year! Hope you had a great time with your family. :) Cheers Robin
Thanks Robin,
In two weeks I will be with my wife and youngest in Singapore again. We will stay, like in November, in Mandarin Oriental. We spent a lot of time around the pool (there is a smoking area) and could see every evening a light show. However, those were thund...
Hello
Hi Kari, It's been raining heaps and weather is cool for us in Sg ( Sg standard). Oriental is a nice place to stay as it's by the floating platform and you can see the laser show going on at mbs as well as the lights from gardens by the bay at night. As f...
Thanks Pat,
Perhaps JLC would be a place to visit. We like to stay in Mandarin Oriental because of the human scale of the hotel. fantastic service (= Singapore) and because all my business friends are just round the corner. Best, Kari
It was raining a lot in Dec Kari
But last 2 days were better. I think it's going to get better :) One of your Singapore friend is organizing a meet up when you are here :) We will meet up soon :) Cheers Robin
It will be nice to meet you soon!
Wives normally say: "I have nothing to wear". I say: "I have no watch to wear." Perhaps I need to go shopping; a dress for the wife, a watch for me... Best, Kari
You lucky lucky man
I heard that December monsoon was vicious especially over in Malaysia and the Air Asia crash in Indonesia. Singapore has upgraded anti-flooding infrastructure. Located in the hotel right in the centre of shopping and eating Orchard Road in Singapore, your...
Wales is the 2nd wettest part of UK
Have you seen the weather reports? Wales is 2nd perhaps to Scotland for wet. That's why the rock band from Scotland are called Wet Wet Wet... maybe? ;) MTF
I know, I know.
I was "lucky" to study in Glasgow a long time ago. I visit London often and the rainfall in England is enough for me. Best, Kari
The cabins look like miniatures, these Northen lights are superb...
Happy NY...where the AP RO PC? Rgds Raymond

Singapore is a shopping paradise for watches...
You going from extreme temperatures to this humid hot region, better "watch" out for health and temptations. Looking forward to more nice pictures. Take care.
I know that Singapore is a real shopping paradise for watches
And knowing that, I will only visit AP next time. I will pick up one and try to resist the temptation ordering another one. I will not visit other Boutiques because last time I was very disappointed about the knowledge of the people selling the same. I go...
This is on my bucket list
really hope to see this one day I could look at it all night long
Very easy to reach...
Just take a flight to Helsinki (2.5 hours from you) and continue from Helsinki to Ivalo (q.5 hours flight). From there you can take a bus, taxi or rent the car and you can stay in my log house. Aurora Borealis is best in winter, in summer there is 24/7 su...
