Pesäpallo
27 August 2006
The nearest pesäpall team is located in Sotkamo, about 60km from Kuhmo. Finnish baseball is great! A lot more movement, not as boring. The team in Sotkamo, Jymy, has won several Pesäpallo Championships recently.

Fishing In Tervasalmi
26 August 2006
Eero and Jukka tried to fish, but they released both of the perch that they caught. They were hoping for something else. We continued to an island and built a campfire where we cooked sausage and had juice.
