Sunday, December 2nd 2018 – Helsinki, Day 4 Sunday we were back under cloudy skies, with the threat of snow, so we decided we’d do the Panorama Bus Tour (again included on the Helsinki Card) starting at 11:00, then grab some lunch at the Christmas Market because we’d not managed to have a Finnish sausage…

Travel 2018 – Helsinki, Day 3

Saturday, December 1st 2018 – Helsinki, Day 3 And so on Day 3 we knew we had several Christmas-related things to do, so after running Tokoinranta parkrun, and coffee and cake for breakfast for me, we headed down the Esplanadi again with intent to go over to Suomenlinna, where I’d been told there would be…
