It takes a long time to become young.

Today is my dad's birthday. We visited my parents in Eira, in South Helsinki. This is the view next to where they live.

"Eira is a neighborhood in Helsinki and it is considered to be the most expensive one.

The district dates back to the early 20th century and received its name after Eira Hospital in the neighboring district of Ullanlinna, which in turn took its name from Eira Hospital in Stockholm, which was named after Eir, the old Scandinavian goddess of healing.

Eira appears in the movie Calamari Union directed by Aki Kaurismäki. In the movie the area of Eira symbolizes wealth and well-being, which the characters are trying to achieve by moving from Kallio to Eira." - Wikipedia
