Helsinki, FinlandWe left Jyväskäla early Tuesday morning with the Danish couple to catch the am train to Helsinki. Although the views were expansive, I'll be honest, we were so tired we slept the whole way. What a difference the Posted by nat-ali in SUOMI (Finland) | Aug 5, 2008

Stockholm, SwedenOur last day, and our trip feels as abbreviated as this entry! Seeing cities in one day leave little time for rest, let alone sleep. We typically rise at 6, travel for a few hours, then upon arrival Posted by nat-ali in SUOMI (Finland) | Aug 7, 2008
Finnish WeddingThey're married! Turns out a Finnish wedding is very much like an American wedding. The bride wears white, they play 'Here Comes the Bride', and there's plenty of food and dancing at the reception. The ceremony was Posted by nat-ali in SUOMI (Finland) | Aug 3, 2008
Hyvää HuommenenThis morning started with a run and swim in the river with the bridegroom. I can see why Finns are in such good shape. We go swimming and in the sauna every day. Jarno is variously a Posted by nat-ali in SUOMI (Finland) | Aug 2, 2008
