I finally finished picking berries from my garden. 5.5l of blackcurrants and about 25l of redcurrants. I have no plans what to do with them. I'm freezing them for now.

Last year, this flower bed was overgrown with weeds, and there were no flowers. I cleaned it up this spring, not knowing what was planted there. Then suddenly, this big flower bush came. It would collapse every time it rained, so I had to add support. Now I'm afraid I damaged it and it dies soon 😅

My redcurrant bushes have a lot of berries this year. They're starting to get ripe and I've caught birds eating them already.I could protect them with a net, but then I'd have birds stuck in the net every day.I don't want to hurt birds, but I also don't want to lose all the berries to some greedy birds 😅

Ice cream with homemade blackcurrant liqueur, and berries as topping.

遠くでゴロゴロ鳴ってる雷の音好きやわ。ちょ、待ってや。。。近づいてきてるやん！勘弁して。I tried writing in kansai dialect. I'm not sure if it's correct.I think kansai dialect suits my nature better 🤔

お兄ちゃんがアイス食べる？って聞いてきて、ちょっとだけって言ったら、卵のカップに入れてくれた。

Maybe I should start watching a Japanese game show. Maybe it would help me learn the language. What show should I watch?

いいサウナだった。Or should I say気持ちいい、or気持ちよかった？AI said that I can say ととのったThat sounds strange, does it even mean anything? 😅Ps: i feel like the thermometer might be a bit broken or old, so maybe it was only 100C 🤔

サーレマー島のアンブラ風車丘に行ってきた！風車が5つあって、1880〜1920年代に建てられたみたい。もともとは9基あって。The site works as a museum. They also had some animals and an old steam tractor. The windmills have complex wooden gears and mechanisms. As an engineer, it doesn't seem right to me 😅

> サーレマー島のポイデ教会に行ってきた。昔はリヴォニア騎士団の要塞だったらしい。壊されたあとに、教会として再建されたらしい。壁がめっちゃ分厚くて、カッコよかった！I asked AI for help in writing this, and it used some strange things like カッコよかった. Is this actually correct? 🤔

お母さんは日本の切手を集まっています。I knew she took over the hobby from her husband after he passed. But I was surprised she made a special album for Japanese stamps.She says that she likes them because japan has interesting and fun stamps. But maybe it's because I like japan? 😅The album is more than half full already! If I go to Japan, I should send her a lot of letters, so she can get some new stamps!

Today is 24C in Estonia. It's so hot I feel ill 🥵. If I can't handle 24C, then how will I ever survive in Japan? 😂. Well, I'm going to help myself to some ice-cream now 🍧

My summer vacation started today. Usually it's 4 weeks long, but this time I only have 2 weeks off. I should take another 2-3 weeks off around fall.

Here's today's flower from my garden. Or is it a bush, or a tree? I wonder what plant it is.

庭にはニ羽鶏... じなかった、他の鳥だった。Some of my neighbours do have chickens. I can hear them sometimes when I'm in the yard. Luckily not in the early morning.

雪解け水月の影さえ凍りけりHaiku have strange grammar. What if I learned to speak only In haiku form and grammar rules? Would anyone understand me?

今日の庭の花。すずらんっていうんだって。フィンランドの国花らしい。知らなかった！🇬🇧 Lily of the valley🇫🇮 Kielo🇪🇪 Maikelluke

昨日、ルバーブのパイを作りました。庭にまだたくさんルバーブがあるので、何を作ろうか考えています。I didn't have time to take a better picture. The pie disappeared too fast.

Every 5 years, the world's biggest regularly occurring concert takes place in Estonia. Approximately 40,000 singers choir sings on a single stage. This year it is on 6th of June. If you happen to be nearby, go take a look.I've thought about taking Japanese friends to see it, but it doesn't occur every year. And this year that it does, I don't have any Japanese friends in Finland 😂😑

最近、生のキャベツを食べるのが好きになってきました。もしかして、私もウサギになってきたのかな。チューリップさえ食べなければ、まだ人間かも。A few weeks ago, I found that some rabbits had eaten my tulips in the yard. That's what the tulips reference is about.
