((Sorry to interrupt the usual program but today I will switch my character over to Finland-- Okay no. xD Just post a lot of Finnish stuff instead of Icelandic stuff for its our Independence Day. (If Americans can make a big deal out of 4th of July no matter what page they admin, then so can I. And I will.) This year the Independence Day is also especially important for us because this year marks the 75th anniversary of the start of Winter War when we fought tooth and nail against Russia to stay independent. So... This year the celebrations are even more than normal shaded by the memories of the wars. Maybe on our 100th Independence Day in 2017 we will do something else than military parades. https://youtube/watch?v=D7b8E2lgLY4 This is the song theyre currently playing in the Presidential Palace where the cream of Finnish society is celebrating tonight. Hyvää itsenäisyyspäivää! Happy Independence Day! P.S. if you want to throw in Finland themed questions today, Ill be happy to answer!))
