IMAGES OF HELSINKI
HELSINKI, FINLAND
Enjoyed a beautiful warm day in Finland. Spent a few hours at Porvoo which is an old world town comprised of small shops and a few restaurants. We had a pretty bad lunch in an old farm house. Highlight of our visit was visiting the local market and enjoying some local fresh berries and snacks.
