Morning coffee at the border of Russia and Sweden

I had a chance for outdoorlife already in the morning and I used it well by geoacaching and photographing. There was published a new geocache last week near the state border zone at Kontu village about 20 km's from my home.

This stone is one of found old boderstones from year 1722 when Tsardom of Russia and Swedish Empire were neighbours and were just tied Treaty of Nystad, which end the Great Nordic War on  30.8.1721. So far reseachers have found 3 of those bordestones in that area, but there must be more.

Again one great example why geocaching is a great hobby. So much things one can learn via caches.
