On the way home we stopped in the woods to see the Witch's Tree. It's a famous location in a Karelian folk story. The story tells about a witch disguised as a beautiful maiden who lures a handsome fellow to this tree. When he is completely under her spell, she changes into her witch form. He ends up being killed as he tries to escape from her. His body is returned to his town and as the girl who loved him cries over his body, her tears fall on him and bring him back to life. Not too likely to happen, but then what good, self-respecting fairy tale could really happen? Anyway, people today visit this tree and tie pieces of fabric on the branches. In the breeze it's a pretty site. The tree looks alive with dancing, colored pieces of cloth. After stopping at the tree, we went to a beautiful waterfall and got out to walk around and take pictures. The waters were a deep emerald green with swirling white foam on top.
