Esplanaadi, 18:35

 
 

We have come to the centre in the dark to do some Christmassy things.

We have walked to Academic bookshop where I could not believe how many different notebooks they had for sale. They had Moleskine notebooks, of course, but also two other equivalent ranges. One seemed German, and the other Swedish. They had them in several sizes, all of them much more expensive than necessary.

Has the world filled up with paper-stock aficionados?

As we walk back down towards the harbour we look at the lights at Kappeli and walk over for a closer look. Digital devices go click and we head off with our phones a few files heavier. If I look round I can see the lights all the way up Esplanaadi.

It seems a shame that the Christmas market has fallen victim to the resurgence of coronavirus.
