08:30 Helsinki. My stomach aches from breakfast. Oh! Kaisa. Going to the fortress of Finland.
11:45 Coming back from the fortress on a ferry. Ghosts stories to tell. Dark tunnels. Granite walls. I wonder if you can ride a mountain bike through there?
13:00 Fast, fast, fast food. Stomach churning. Burgers by some brown brothers is good.
13:25 Going back into Helsinki. Tour of the city. What's her name? Tuija. Arne are our guides. 5 million people. 500,00 in the city.
15:00 Rock Church. Looks like the Planet of the Apes church. Blasted out of rock.
21:05 After dinner walk and wrote some email for outragous prices. Still feel fat.
Helsinki, Finland. Very neet place. Land of Linux. In fact the tour guide pointed out Linus Torvalds house or the house he had lived in as a child. They are really proud of him there. The city is small. The island fortress was cool. The Finns call there homeland Suomi. I want to go back.
