Planes, Trains and Automobiles

Last night was rough!  Matt and I were having flashbacks of our first 8 weeks or so with Harris.  We were up at 3 am with him screaming, "See Man!!!!", over and over.  He saw a man's face in the sculpture across the street and was convinced that it was alive.  Anyways, we kept trying to throw him off by watching Finding Nemo then squeezed a few hours of sleep in before heading to the train station.  Oh well, I guess we bragged a little too much yesterday and certainly can't have expectations of a perfect two year old. 

Thank goodness for kid friendly travels!  Harris spent most of the 2.5 hour train ride in the play area.  I think he went down the slide about 50 times.  He played so well with the other kids too!  We arrived in Imatra (our new hometown) at 12:45.  Our taxi was waiting at the train platform right next to the polka band.  What a riot!  We scurried around the town taking in a few sights.


Thank the Lord we didn't have too many turns.  I think the conductor was a little worn out.


This was after he put the train on auto pilot



Test driving the slides in his new hood.


Here is the dam in Imatra.




Man these Fins love to walk
