Aurinko dates tells you when is the sunrise and the sunset. You can appreciate a difference between Helsinki and Tampere because of their different latitudes. To see the midnight sun, (”night-without night” in finnish: yötön yö), when the sun is visible for a continuous 24 hours you will have to go to the north, Lapland. For example Rovaniemi, close to the Arctic Circle, midnigt sun is from 6th of June to 6th of July. Of course, more north you go, more days you can see the midnight sun. The extreme is the North Pole with 6 months daytime, 6 months nighttime in the year.
What people do in summer in Tampere? Go to the beach of the lake, their boats/yachts, sauna, fishing,… whatever but try to be all the time they can outside, because summer is short in Finland and you have to take most of it.

Sí sí.. baja a unos 15 grados o así. Los 29 son pico, pero normalmente hace unos 20-24.. al menos hoy y es la previsión para esta semana y crucemos los dedos! Dicen algunos que no es normal que haga esta calor tantos días, pero el cambio climático está llegando aquí también.
Todavía me acuerdo de esas noches en Málaga sin poder dormir por el calor!, que no sabes cómo te vas a poner en la cama jeejeje

Jo, pues con 29 grados os estareis asando, y en la noche, ¿Os baja mucho la temperatura? Porque en el norte de méxico tenemos mínimas de 25 grados, eso de estar a las 12 la noche (noche cerrada sin una pizca de luz natural) a 32 grados es bastánte pesado
