Our impressions from this year journey to Finland. Our curly Beta decided to aarrange everything according to its nature and we spent a unique week in yearning Scandinavia. Drive by the sea coast in Latvia, a ferry from Tallinn… After two hours in the ferry we are at Helsinki \ud83d\ude42 The first promenade \u2013 its hard to keep the troika \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A sight at one direction.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A visit in Turku \u2013 where is the whale?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

One of Turku docks.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Together with the fellow Aki. The liver curly lives in an exciting terrain \u2013 you may see the immense distance from the hill…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Our first camp on the sea coast at the bay. Its phantastic to awake after the noise of waves…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

…ant to see the swans landing the water…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The dogs tuned the holiday.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What are you sitting, brownish?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I could make a very very huge hole \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

One dog, two tales \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The owner of the second tale.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Freedom.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Take No 2: Freedom.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Curly mermaid.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Family portret.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

One is in a graceful step…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

…another always working…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Almost a swan. You see I’m so elegant as they \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After visiting the curly Aki we turned to the unique old city Rauma in the south-west of Finland. Its old town was inscribed in Unesco in 1991. It is a unimitable heritage of wooden architecture and carvings. The view started at the old market square.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The narrow cosystreets with wooden cottages.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The intense green… Real idyll…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Like in a fairy-tale \u2013 the woodhouse with carvings.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The old water pump \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After the walking in the old Rauma’s streets we turned to one more Unesco heritage (from 1999) \u2013\u00a0it is\u00a0Sammallahdenm\u00e4ki burials – stone cairns from the Bronze age and the Lappi parish in Lowe Satakunta over 20 km from \u00a0Rauma. The evening was coming fast. We were walking alone and the mystic surroundings inspired an awesome respect.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\" <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The cuddly moss…<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\" <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Sitting on the millennium rock.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We stayed no longer as we had no wish to meet \u00a0the midnight\u00a0\u00a0in the burials\u00a0\ud83d\ude42 Quickly we turned to the south. The biting green.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

At the camping\u2013 on the sea coast, with the sauna and dark scandinavian green and the azure of the sea.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Dock.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sailor? No. Super-retriever \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Its nice…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Drive further. Coffee time.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Our next hourney stage was so unexpected… After the visiting Turku information and tourism centre we saw the map of Turku archipelago. Nearly 250 km of road through the islands… We decided without thinking twice – we are going \ud83d\ude42 We crossed the islands and islets, we got there by ferrys – big and little; we serpentined in the perfect nature; then got by ferry again… Our course was:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The snappy road sign \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A little ferry.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A better ferry.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A big local ferry.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Journey in the sea.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Port after port.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Is this little bark going after us? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Eden…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

An old church in the island…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

…wilde nature…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

…ant the ferry again… coffee time on the top of ferry…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

…the azure distances…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Greeting by Super-retriever from Finland \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The funny water garages.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The fish farms \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The road over the archipelago was ending… One more stop in the dock.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The midsummer night was coming. Its a day, when Finns go the the forests… the empty archipelago started to fill with people. We were lucky – we were going the opposite direction \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

the last camp and walking on the rocks. A nostalgic sight…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A view from the tent…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The last journey day and the road to Helsinki. Last year this section with almost ten tunnels was not finished \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The last promenade in Helsinki. Real traffic \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The midsummer night’s symbol – branches of the birch. They are everywhere – even in the tourist ferries \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Towards the white cathedral.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Overhead…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Wandering in the streets and docks of Helsinki.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A man was playing the trumpet. Gues, what he was playing \ud83d\ude42 The Helsinki street was sounding with the russian military march \u00a0\u201eDen\u2019 pobedy\u201c (\u00a0\u201eDay of victory\u201c)…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The last stop in Helsinki – cafe \u201eUrsula\u201c and the taste of curd cake with cloudberries jam.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201eUrsula\u201c… According to Helsinki residents it is one of the most romantic places in the city… You may see a nice sea view through the windows… Its no matter that the sky is grey…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And as we were coming back in a ferry we were wondering about the unlimited scandinavian phantasy \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Houses and cottages<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sauna cabin<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Trash cabin<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Post and bus stop cabin<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Little mill<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And many many scandinavian details \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

All this makes the solid scandinavian mood and environment. We return here for the fifth time and leaving we repeat – we will come back. What a wonder question – what is the magnet of Scandinavia? People? Nature? The sense of abandoned freedom? All together. Also this time we met some wonderful people \u2013 it is \u00a0Marika (greetings to Sali \ud83d\ude42 ), Satu – an owner of curly \u00a0Aki, Tiina and \u00a0Tuomas and their curly Metzo. It was nice to meet you:) And we know – we’ll come back \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

For the end – journey portrets:<\/p>\n

Dessy<\/p>\n

The restless Gama. Nevertheless one shot was done \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And us \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
