Filifionka and clouds

I have a cold so I was really afraid of this journey. Consequences of changing pressure in a plain are always terrible for my ears when I’m ill even a bit. Thanks God I’ve survived. I can hear almost normal now, so I can tell that I fill very well. A terrible headache is nothing in comparison to problems I was expecting today morning.
I’m in some hotel somewhere in Helsinki. It seems to be dark and magic place – this opinion comes form the first impression I have been arriving here. When my plane was landing I was observing a view form a window. There was a lot of small clouds above airport and it was raining. I saw the clouds and drops of rain in lights of the plane. The lights made them ominous and mysterious. It was like the world from the visions of Filifionka from Tove Janson books.
Unfortunately I don’t know how we call in English this female Troll. She was very lonely, she was always tiding everything up and she was afraid of everything. In her imagination the world was full of terrible beings. Each of them very dangerous for her.
