Finland
Finland










We arrived Finland by morning train. Tho we only spent 1day here (actually not even 1day), it's actually sufficient to sense & appreciate the beauty here.
Just nice, it was their Army's Day so almost all shops & buildings had the Finland flag raised or hung. If there's a chance to visit Finland again, it would be during winter time so I can visit the Santa Claus village & see the northern lights.



That's the market place. You can find the finest & cheapest chocolates here. Fresh fruits & vege, smoked & raw meat to cakes & pastries. It's definitely cheaper to buy here than in supermarkets & the choco choices definitely would wow you cuz they're just too many! I think I just died there seeing them. Wish I could buy all of them but it's still ex. Pampered myself with a packet of white, milk & dark chocos which costs Euro 4.90 which the pr is q ok cuz it tastes soo fine.


Aft some touring round the city Helsinki, we went to board the cruise at the pier to Stockholm, Sweden. I prayed hard to get the Silja Line rather than the Viking cuz the Silja Line just looks too nice & grand I can't wait to step my foot on. Nice buffet on board & the dessert certainly would make you fat. There's also a tax-free shoppin on board. Dad bot a wallet here for Euro 5.90 & I bot the Clinique travel exclusive for Euro 36.90 Its actually q a bargain.


Coming nxt...Sweden
