Finnish Sauna

Late yesterday evening we had Finnish sauna, which of course includes ice bathing. Personally I think the water was too much on the hot side. Hey. There was an area of the lake where the ice had melted. I followed Doctors recommendation and dived my whole body under three times.

The Finnish sauna is a blessing in many ways. Somehow the most powerful prayer meetings have a tendency to start up kind of by it self when we have sauna. Last night the boys shouted with full lungs while praying for topics God put on our hearts.

He he... Well... It is very good for the body they say... And it's not as bad as it sounds before you've tried.... Anyhow it's VERY refreshing :D

To Marianne:
Well. You never know... Maybe it is. Some of those Finns that do ice-bathing a lot looks suspiciously healthy and refreshed.

To Laura:
Hi. It would have been so great to see you. I will be in Finland at least from 1-16. July this summer, so hopefully we meet.
