British Museum (London, UK)


Once again, one of our family's favorite places... or actually Lassi's favorite place. He loves Egyptian stories, hieroglyphs and study sargofags. Sitting 2 hours on the floor, copying everything what he can see. During that time, when Lassi was doing his "studies" with Mom and Taru, I was visiting otherside of British Museum with Laura. We ended up to see fashinating history from Africa continent.

Choi Kwang Do (Richmond, UK)


Our family started Choi Kwang Do in Richmond at the end of January 2008. After tight evaluation of different martial arts, we selected this, as it was only martial arts which was completing every persons requirements in our family. Kids wanted some freedom of practise their martial arts, not following tight rules and regulations, but more or less learning by doing (playing). On the other hand, Manta didnt want to concentrate for competitions, but wanted to learn something by doing more or less together. I personally twisted my knee badly, so I wanted some safe martial arts, without jumping and also with prior to use hands maybe a bit more than legs, as kicking was containing some risk of repeat my injury (which didnt actually never happen). On the otherhand, it is nice to get doing something with full power, so in that sense only some lightweight practises was out of the guestion. This has been great stop for stressful days a couple times a week and gradings has been passed. in The picture, kids has yellow, but currently they both has yellow senior already. Now we just need to wait, that someone is bringing this art to Finland as well :)
