The day before Christmas Eve

We are very often talking about Christmas Eve and that is really important - for me there is a very huge meaning. But what happens the day before that?
Usually it is 23-december - so happy birthday to all friends: MOMM, RIHO, EVA!!!!! I can sing a song - but the present for you is that i won´t :P so they can all save your ears hehehheheee!
The day before that .... i woke up at 6:30 am (it was hard - and that was only my friends "fault" :) they didn´t said to me that i have to go home in a wise time.) And then Maria called - cool - that was fun and i even almost didn´t sleep yet.
.....day before .... morning procedures :)
.....day before .... breakfast at 7:00am (this time mushrooms) heheheheheee - yes, yes - i know nobody eats mushrooms at 7 o`clock in the morning - but now you know one person who does that - little weird - but for me is quite strange to be normal.
.....day before..... read Bible :) refreshing!!!
.....day before..... looking for my car (here it is right under the snow - yehuuu! Winter, you are showing your clothes already the day before ..... cool - i am already exciting about christmas Eve!!!) Some morning exercises with car and then to the journey to hospital ehehheheheeee!!!!
.....day before .... i went work ( so it means - i am at work now too - as you see - i am doing hard work hehehheheheeheeee). and if i be honest really that is my hobbie and now i can deal with my hobby for 24 hour - so i hope that is special time!
....day before.... drank cup of coffee - it is 11:35am and only one cup - Efka, good!
....day before.... I am going to eat - today is special meal .... we are going now ....
....day before ... I even working :) everytime that is so special - I am really thankful that God has given me such kind of work :)!
...day before... were born 3 lovely babies, where i could be part :) (Two boys and one girl) -HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
...day before... is ending already and I am still sitting at my workingtable :) wow what I am doing here - GO SLEEP :) OK!!!!
.... THERE IS NOT ANYMORE -The Day Before Christmas Eve-

"Thank You Lord, that you were created that day for me and for every person in the world - Whose You loved so much, that you gave Your beloved Son. That no one will perish, but everybody will living forever!" [Efka`s free translation John.3:16]

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Tiny interview with Winter

- "Hello WINTER - plz to meet with you". So now you have been here already 1 hour and 30 minutes. So how are you feeling - and do you have some expectation in this year in Estonia?"
- "Hi! Thank you - your estonians - your welcoming is quite often very warm for me! Estonia is always in my heart, I even wanted to come earlier - almost got in, but with your warm hearts you just blocked me and said that come in Christmas time."
- "Yep - in those times we have different occations - and you have really special place there, so because why we didn't want that you are coming earlier. And if i be honest - when you came in November for a while - people heart were changed :)"
- "Yeah, i was surprised myself also - suddenly i saw how open were estonian people - usually they are doing by themselves but now they were helping each other and supporting - even that for some days were quite hard for you."
- "Yep - it was interesting time. So - i hope that Christmas time is much more special. Now i will let you go - and do what you have to do - BUT WISELY :)"
-"See you! I have little present for you - white hat for your car!"
- "Aaa! So lovely - thank you!"

Quests at ART_CAFE

So when youthmeeting ended - suddenly we discovered ourselves in a special - place ... wow ... something interesting ART_CAFE. Special eve - because there were all God creatures - very different with all their talents. It is really hard to explain - so I just have to show all to you - please don't be afraid - those are only pictures. And in the beginning i just want to say sorry - that i publish those pictures - but i know that only some special people are reading that ( so Maria, if you are hearing me here - give me call :P !!! )
So let me introduce you some parttakers :) and we made there some art :)

In alphapetical order:

Here comes Anita - perfect - full of joy and full of art.

Efka (me) - I just melted into the art - and here i am :)

That is Liis' ART_look!

That hits you really strongly!

So - be careful!
That's the woman - Maila! Terrible - i didn't have any crazy pic about her - so sad ..........

But i promise that one day i will find something :)

Maria - at the moment (in the pic) most spiritual person in a room. She almost flies - and the most important thing is that red paper - so you can ask from her what was in that paper - i can't tell - because it is secret :)

Meeme - last but not least!
That is special pic - so i hope that you are not reading that blog :)

As you saw ART_Cafe is really strange place - where are strange people - but if you are enough bold then you can come there!

See you!!!

Final - finally :) ... finished - Bye-bye vacation!

... ehh I don't like that vacation already is ending - but for sure I can say that it was good-one - i hope that Riin has the same feelings.

Merlika and Riin

Saaremaa was also great - we met there Maila and did something really big - went Cinema :) (DIVA) Narnia: Prince Caspian - SO GOOD! For me it doesn't matter, that i have seen that once :)

Riin went with Maila's friends to local church in the night - (it was already 22:00) but today eve i was so tired - (maybe old heheheheee) that i went to our sleepingplace - but already in the morning we saw eachother :)

Picking up Maila, we drove to Muhu - there is a really special person - Kaia and horses - ou, we had there such a great time :) But they don't like Opels - so i didnt take any horse to my car. :)

Let me introduce: Elbus and Kaia

Two beauties!

Locals welcoming Maila :)

After visiting Horses be began to drove back - full of good mood, tiredness and lot of different experience needed to go back home. But before we needed to catch our boat :) I was so wishing that maybe there is a little stormy weather - then it is so fun to be in the boat :) And dreams came true: little more windy - yehuu!!! New hair :)

Maila just said, that she is seasick :) i didn't believe her - heheheheeeee!

Maybe now i believe...but luckily she stayed alive :)
And soon - very soon we were already on the ground.

Then suddenly we saw one Lonely Knight - and of course we had compassion and went to welcome that place :) For sure we go there back :)

Riin and Maila in the knight hall!

And then we reached to Maarjas's birthday :) yehuuu - party - we love parties! happy birthday Maarja!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FRIENDS... SEE YOU .... SOMEWHERE ON THE ROAD...
18-th, August, 2008 - 23:30, Monday Night

On the 3-rd day....

...we woke up, we discovered that we are in London – it was gray, rainy and sun was shining behind the clouds. But we were happy – I was sleeping when Riin already took apart a pray-hour with local pastor at 6 o'clock. I was calmly with them (in my dreams at upper-room). There we spent night (Kärdla Baptist Church) THANK YOU!



At 10 or after that we packed our things and with joy we went travel around Hiiumaa.

There were lot of weather in Hiiumaa - but mostly storm and rain :)




First stopping – Tahkuna Lighthouse – WoW...first and the best emotions.


(Wind almost blowed us away – but gravitation and our light-weight did great cowork – and we are still in Hiiumaa).

You see, Riin is fighting with wind!

Before, when i experienced space trip.

Riin and Memory (Dedicated to those who were killed in Estonia catastrophe (1996)

Almost gone by the wind, we had to find some kind of place to rest – we found place, what was over our expectations (5redstar) luxhotel (with sauna, livingroom and so on....)









After then when money ended – we needed to built up our own forestcabin – that didn't give very good shelter.


Riin was volunteer to prepare for us lunch with red mushrooms.





After big lunch us invited to Paris. We had to meet there some famous people under the Eiffel Tower. Luckily we met there man who built up that tower.























[Dedication to Maria: We gave to your flip-flop-shoes possibilty to be on the ground of Paris – look clearly Riin's feet :) You can pay travelcost for your shoes later.]

Suddenly our way was blocked – ambulances, police, fire...men – there were big rally. But our car was so fast, that they were afraid and didn't take us to the race. So we drove by all cars and going to find some warm food. There weren't [ei kippu ega kõppu] nothing – so we reached to Kõpu lighthouse.

That was like big Tunnel :)


Foooood – too early get excited – the worst experience with food....no comments.













[Dedicated to Maria] From Kõpu


IT was still raining and raining and raining. We were happy, because we knew, that we can't spend night in the tent – but weren't no idea – where to stay. We just went to door-to-door asking for shelter. Suddenly we just lost in Hiiumaa forest – that was awful – i was crying almost hour when i found Riin.


REUNION!


We had big quetion all the time where is the Sun but then we saw in the poster, that Tätte and the Sun are in Kärdla today's eve. So then we understood the reason why it was raining all the day in our place in Kassari.
We bought house after when we had our dessert-meal with coffee (that was good one). As you see – our lovely home is pink one – so now you can visit us in Hiiumaa :)















In the evening we had little missunderstanding – because i dared to say to Riin that coffee isn't so strong. But very soon we were friends again – and now i have much more space in my mouth. (By the way, now i spit better than Riin).


Our sleepingroom door :) Riin is coming our and I am coming in :)

And time for interview:
Riin, tell me most exciting experience about today?
Riin: „Actually, when we found our questhouse. I think now i know where i do my honeymoon“
Really? I am happy for you. Just no words.
Riin: „ Efka, I have quetion for you too – how are the roads in Hiiumaa?
Roads are good – but only when we on the right road. Map-reader just read map on the wrong page – but fortunatly Hiiumaa is an island – we can't get lost quite hardly. And it makes our trip much more exciting and we see different towns and villages several times.
Riin: „ Ouch – and who is your map reader! Ok, plz don't answer to that quetion :) So, as i understand – you have travelled long distances.“
Actually yes, everywhere where we saw signs – there were written max longest distance approximately 20 km. (Lot of driving!) And we still haven't kill our car.
Riin: „Something happened? Seriously?“
Mhmm, how to say – on the road one horse almost hit our car (i think, that horse is rassist- hates white Opels) and one big stone decided to climbed under the car and began to scream. But anything didn't fall apart and we gave to my little Opel free evening off. Just letting be alone and enjoying nature for 15 hours. But now is already late night, so we are going to our pink-lovely-little house – to have a pink dreams!
Riin and Efka together: „GOOD-NIGHT OUR DEAR FRIENDs! THANK YOU – THAT YOU ARE STILL READING THAT .... THING!!!
16-th, August, 2008 Saturday – at 10 in the night.

... On the fourth day we just wanted to discover Saaremaa also and as you see - we are already on the boat :)

And climbing at the Kaali!

So - ending :) Now we are going to visit Maila and coming back together tommorow to Rakvere :)

Evening...in....Hiiumaa

So that is the second night and again we have really great place - Timo and Tarmo let us to spend night in the local baptist church and we welcomed that happily :) we have really "hard" times hehehehehee!!!

As you see - today will be the our sleepingplace (Kärdla Baptist church upperroom) and Riin feels here very comfortable :) Local pastor said, that only at 6 o'clock in the morning there will be praymeeting downstairs :)

So what we did then in the evening. At 6 in the evening we discovered, that we want to see some places - so my wish was to go Kallaste Bank. My imagination was great - so we almost drove back to Heltermaa - and for amazment was, that was in the middle-of-forest hahahahahaaaa!

So Riin could also wish what kind of place she would go. She chose PALUKÜLA - Her Village :) (It is connected with her's last name)

So we did there special trip and she said that she will maybe ????????????????????? go to live there and marry in the local church - hehehehehee!!!!!

So we also visited Paluküla church - beautiful :)

As you see - it was so hard to took her away from there :)

And in the other pic she is waiting for right person :)

So, now we are again together with Riin and I have great possiblity to ask some quetions:

- Riin, what are you doing?

Riin: "Dreaming!"

- So because you had such great day in some special places? Did it impact you so much?

Riin: "Yes, deeply - specially Paluküla"

I almost see tears in her eyes.

- Are you coming back with me?

Riin: "I really would love to stay Paluküla, but at first - church needs to build up. So I am patient and waiting for right timing. Yes, I am coming with you. "

- Thank you Riin, you are so special friend. So you can chose from todays pic your favourite :)

Riin: "Really? I it is SO hard - then I take one and i have quetion for public - how many people are in the cabin?"

- That is really hard quetion? But let our public will quess that :)

But now I say just good-night from the greenland and believe that we can you show around and tell some true-stories again :)

Yours,

Eff and Riin
