The weather really looks as nasty in Kotka as in Hamburg yesterday.
But nevertheless a really good shot under that circumstances.
But why worry? Only 146 days left till spring comes around :-o

I tried my best with these pics. Well before spring comes the winter and a possibility for taking cool in ice pics. :-)

As yet I never thought of the in-ice-option. But there you go... this is one of the great advantages you have up north. Here we got some ice on the streets but seldom on the water. :lol:

I think you had some ice and beautiful weather in January 2006 in hamburg. but it´s true it´s very rare there.

There's a little river running through Hamburg, the Alster. And right in the center of Hamburg it's held back and forms a lake. I remember years ago that lake (called Binnenalster) was totally frozen and there were people selling mulled wine in the middle of the lake and you could do ice-skating almost to the front door of the stores on Jungfernstieg. That was nice! But it only happens once in probably ten years, if it's that often...

Can imagine that. And possible more seldom as the global climate change is slowly affecting the Europe. For example here in the north winters get shorter and a bit warmer. At least I guess so.

Hi Pekka,
Nice picture but she's not the biggest for the moment. Faust and Idelio of thesame company re bigger with their 8000 cars capacity.
Take a look at our News section atthe Ship Hunters site: http://www.ship-hunters.be/News%20reports/News%20from%20this%20month.htm

Regards,
Frederik & Gerda :-D

Thanks you like my pic of her. Yeah I know the new ones but they haven´t called Finland yet. This is the biggest in Finnish waters so far. :-)
