There was a huge party in the hotel last night. As usual on Juhannus everybody got really drunk. White night in Oulu (sun practically doesn't go below the horizont here during the summer), gulf of Bothnia (hotel is right on sea shore), strongest wind from the sea that raised in the air a lot of sand from the beach and created a sand storm effect, and lots of drunk people in the midst of it - it was the most surreal Juhannus I remember.

In the morning servicemen were cleaning the beach and surroundings, wind was still strong and we had another 500km ahead of us.
