Holy Jetlag Batman!!! There’s 19 hours of sunlight today!

One thing I didn’t realize here is that by coming at the height of midsummer here, there will almost be no darkness for me to sleep in!From today’s table, there will be almost 19 hours of sunlight … I guess I will really be doing some hardcore touring of Helsinki, seeing everything in the equivalent of days that are twice as long!

What’s crazy is that each day from now gets a couple minutes less sunlight each day … this isn’t rocket science, but when you’re from a Caribbean island, you’re accustomed to fairly rigid 12 hours of sunlight all year round.
