Early Mornings and Staring Kids

I get NEVER used to waking up before pigs start farting (a direct translantion of something people say in finnish when they mean early fresh morning hours, those moments when every decent person is still sleeping). This morning we got up 6 o'clock. My head is aching, fortunately coffee seems to help a little.

We met a friend with kids at a playground. She is Finnish and she is tall. Japanese kids came to look at her with their mouths open and mothers giggling nervous while taking their kids away from staring. I am not that exotic in kids' eyes at all. I blend in better than my Finnish friend.

Blend in...ha ha ha, that was funny!
