The Samis

Today, on February the 6th I will be thinking of the Samis when they celebrate their National Day. Like many indigenous people, the Samis have suffered greatly throughout history.

The Samis mainly live in the northernmost part of Europe. No one knows exactly how many Samis there are,  and the figures vary from 80,000 to 135,000.

Amazon party

I have been really busy lately working on my online business, but I thought that I would share some pictures from the Amazon post-Holiday party. The reason why Amazon has the party after Christmas is because Christmas is their busy busy season.

Last Saturday, Christer and I drove to CenturyLink Field in downtown Seattle, where the party took place. This years theme was circus and there were a lot of different activities to entertain the thousands of party goers.

Welcome to the party.

Let's go to the circus.

No circus without cotton candy. However, although cotton candy is nice to look at, I opted out, and, no, I did not bring any back to Z and I. Mean mommy.

A couple of bands were playing. I really liked Young the Giant's alternative rock.

Until next year Amazon.
