Mainitsin jokin aika sitten blogissa ett\u00e4 pidempiaikaisia haaveita on toteutumassa t\u00e4n\u00e4 vuonna. Steampunk-asu ja 1700-luvun tanssiaisiin osallistuminen olivat sellaisia asioita joista olen haaveillut jo kauan saamatta tikkua ristiin. Mutta nyt niist\u00e4 on molemmista saatu p\u00e4\u00e4 auki. Ehk\u00e4p\u00e4 seuraaviin tanssiaisiin on helpompi osallistua ja seuraava steampunk-asu saa muotonsa hieman nopeammin.<\/p>\n

Kolmaskin pitk\u00e4aikainen haave toteutuu aivan n\u00e4ill\u00e4 n\u00e4pp\u00e4imill\u00e4. Olemme nimitt\u00e4in is\u00e4nn\u00e4n kanssa pitk\u00e4st\u00e4 aikaa matkustamassa Englantiin. Ja t\u00e4ll\u00e4 kertaa emme mene lent\u00e4en vaan luvassa on eeppist\u00e4kin eeppisempi road trip, eli ajamme autolla Euroopan l\u00e4pi. Viimesyksyist\u00e4 pikavauhdilla suoritettua hautajais-matkaa lukuunottamatta emme ole yhdess\u00e4 k\u00e4yneet Englannissa sitten vuoden 2010. Min\u00e4h\u00e4n kyll\u00e4kin k\u00e4vin viikonloppumatkalla Lontoossa kaverini kanssa vuosi sitten tammikuussa, mutta se oli puhtaasti shoppailumatka ilman n\u00e4ht\u00e4vyyksi\u00e4.<\/p>\n

T\u00e4ll\u00e4 kertaa luvassa on enemm\u00e4n paikallisn\u00e4ht\u00e4vyyksi\u00e4 kuten tippukiviluolia, Shakespearen synnyinseutuja ja Alan Turingin keksim\u00e4 Enigma-koodin purkulaite Bletchley Parkissa. Luonnollisesti my\u00f6s joku per\u00e4konttikirppis pit\u00e4\u00e4 luuhata l\u00e4pi. J\u00e4nnitt\u00e4\u00e4 aivan \u00e4lytt\u00f6m\u00e4sti, sill\u00e4 eih\u00e4n me olla ennen t\u00e4mm\u00f6ist\u00e4 reissua tehty omalla autolla. Se onkin aiheuttanut kaikenlaista s\u00e4\u00e4t\u00f6\u00e4 matkaj\u00e4rjestelyihin. Piti mm. tilata Englannin vasemmanpuolista liikennett\u00e4 varten auton valoja suuntaavat tarrat ja Ranskassa ajoa vartenRanskan valtion virallisesti hyv\u00e4ksym\u00e4t\u00a0alkometrit. N\u00e4it\u00e4h\u00e4n ei tokikaan saa mist\u00e4\u00e4n Suomesta koska daa, eih\u00e4n nyt kukaan t\u00f6rpp\u00f6 l\u00e4hde Suomesta Eurooppaan autolla. Motonetiss\u00e4 myyj\u00e4 katsoi meit\u00e4 sanattomana suu auki kun kysyimme l\u00f6ytyyk\u00f6 valojen suuntaus-tarroja. Asiakas viereisell\u00e4 kassalla tiesi mist\u00e4 on kyse, mutta myyj\u00e4 ei ollut koskaan kuullutkaan.<\/p>\n

Mutta noniin, reissua siis pukkaa. Voi olla ett\u00e4 en matkan aikana ehdi vastata kommentteihin, tai voi olla ett\u00e4 ehdinkin. Mutta \u00e4lk\u00e4\u00e4 antako sen h\u00e4irit\u00e4 kommentointianne, vastaan niihin\u00a0viimeist\u00e4\u00e4n matkalta palattua.<\/p>\n

Some time ago I mentioned in the blog that couple of my long term dreams are coming to life this year. Steampunk outfit and 1700’s ball were things like that but for some reason it took long time to make them happen. However now those are both done. Perhaps it’s slightly easier to make it to the next ball and put another outfit together.<\/p>\n

Third long time dream is also becoming true right now because me and hubby are travelling to England. And this time we’re not flying. It will be the mother of all epic road trips because we are driving there through Europe. We haven’t been in England together since 2010, except the very short funeral trip in last November. I spent also long weekend in London with my friend a year ago. But that was just shopping trip, no sightseeing.<\/p>\n

Now we are going to investigate local sightseeings like some caves and Bletchley park where Enigma and Bombe machines are. We will also dig into some car boot sales. I’m a bit nervous\u00a0 becaus we have never done this long trip with our own car. That has caused some extra arrangements. We had to order light adjusting stickers from England for leftsided trafic and French government approved alcotests. Ofcourse you can’t buy this stuff from Finland, because dah, no-one wants to drive to Europe from Finland (sarcasm). Staff at Motonet was looking at us with blank face when we asked light adjusting stickers. Even the customer next to us knew what they were but staff didn’t.<\/p>\n

But yeah, we’re travelling. I might not have time to reply your comments during the trip,but don’t allow that limit your commenting. I will reply all when we’re\u00a0 back, at the latest.<\/p>\n
