“Can we go to another ‘too hot, too cold?” my eight-year-old son Zac asks when I tell him we have two hours of downtime before dinner. “They make me happy,” my 11-year-old daughter May chimes in. Around 45 minutes later, with glowing faces, we’re edging gingerly down metal steps into the pine-tree-lined Lake Näsijärvi at Rauhaniemi Folk Spa. The week before, we’re told, the lake was still frozen. Now, the water is around 3°C.
