It&#8217;s me, Ikea!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">it seems to me that the post about angel in snow has to wait a little. because for the last week i have been travelling in South-Estonia and doing other fun things. like for example, on Saturday, i went to watch the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rally.ee\/?a=a018&amp;b=3904\" target=\"_blank\">V\u00f5ru Rally<\/a> in lots of cold weather and snow. they tell me it was something like -25*C, so that&#8217;s pretty cold, i guess&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">so then, i took some fotografs as well. i have to tell you i was in

am, waiting for the rally cars to come:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ikeathegiraffe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/DSC_0558.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\"
