We were able to get out for a while after taking a nap. Our hotel is in downtown Helsinki so it was a really cool tour that we did. It seems like most people walk or they ride a bike to get around...well, downtown anyway. Harris seemed intrigued by just the crowd in general, the trolley, tall buildings, and the water/boats. There was an outside market next to the water mostly selling fresh produce but handmade things as well. They had the best looking strawberries that smelled scrumptious!! Kind of regretting not getting any. There are tons of quaint little restaurants with outside seating. It's really all just as its shown in the movies. We went through the train station just to be familiar with it tomorrow and for Harris to see. It was a fun afternoon but we are exhausted and hoping for a good long sleep!

  1. Your hair color and skin tone makes you and Harris look like you fit right in! I'm happy to hear Harris slept on the plane and that you got out to see the sights. Safe and fun travels to your final destination!
