“Happy Days meets The Kremlin”

So I’m in Helsinki and to be honest I still don’t know much about it. I got in about 2 in the afternoon, and to my hostel at about 4. When I got here I was so tired that any thought of actually going out and exploring at all was long gone by the time I finally made it to my room. The plane trip to here had a stopover in Istanbul so for the most part I had been awake for 36 hours, minus about 5 that I got on the plane. What I have seen of Finland is that the people are very nice, and the weather is absolutely perfect. Other than that, I’ll have to think about before I write any more. I will say that the architecture doesn’t seem that impressive, and there doesn’t appear to be much to see. I keep coming up with that Finland is best described as “Happy Days” meets the Kremlin.

Today I’m going to walk around the city and take some pictures, get my ticket to Stockholm and probably head to the water. Maybe try to find a city tour to go on. I can’t stop thinking that I’m missing something here, that if I just find out what it is, I’ll be very impressed with the city.
