In the background you can see the beautiful lake Divonne.


Time for some more LÖYLY...!


Yes, our calculations and practical estimations were correct. The SAUNAAB can easily be used with 6 people inside...!


The SAUNAAB rules...!

One of the best saunas ever made. Really.

Any SAUNAAB event is a funny happening, and a colleague of Mike S came around to check it out.
Her son was very interested in the funny-looking SAAB!


And sure, she went in for a quick test of the SAUNAAB:s heat!


This "second" SAUNAAB inaguration was a very nice happening. The löyly:s of the SAUNAAB are incredible!
We have more or less reached our goal of being able to have a "SAUNAAB" after 15-20 minutes of heating.
The new record for heat in the SAUNAAB was set with the Valmet thermometer reaching up to +80 degrees Celcius...!
...For those of you who don't remember, the previous record was about +70 degrees C.

Regrettably any SAUNAAB session ends. We would have liked to keep on SaunAABathing for a little while longer,
but a couple with blue clothes told us that we could not have the SAUNAAB there. :-( What a shame.
Being the flexible and understanding people we are, we just packed up and left.

...Some other place, some other SaunAABathing...!

Until the next time, take care and see you around!

All the best,
Magnus Björk.
