We are just about to begin the long drive back to Somero from Kalajoki, so I thought for a change I would send you this postcard so that it arrives before we do.
I met with my cousin Sari today in a gorgeous little cafe where they also sell ceramics which are made on the premises. It's called Iso-Pahkala and has been there since 1972. If you should ever happen to be in Kalajoki then I definitely recommend a visit.
Around 10,000 people live in Kalajoki, so it is around the same size as Somero, but

Kalajoki is one of Finland's busiest tourist destinations, and tens of thousands of visitors come here over the summer. Kalajoki has Finland's longest stretch of beach, loads of activities, a waterpark, several hotels and many hundreds of summer cottages to choose from. And of course my friend Minna, who will tell you everthing you need to know about her home town. She loves this place as much as I love Somero. There is only one negative about kalajoki, and that is the fact that it is a 512km drive from where I live... but worth a visit in any event. Here are a few pictures....
