About to leave for the Baltic States

On Tuesday we fly out, first to Singapore and then onto Helsinki. We were last there in 2010 and I will just recycle a few photos to make sure everything is in working order.

Central Railway station
An elegant doorway
Like Melbourne Helsinki has plenty of trams which are a great way to explore the city. Needless to say most are more modern than this one.
The Market hall
Open Air Market
Just outside Helsinki is the Sibelius monument,
Barnacle Goose.
The cathedral sits on a hill - a popular place for relaxing.in the sunshine.

The almost austere interior appeals to me.
Elegant Finnish design in the shop windows.

Relaxing on the sidewalk.
So just to get you in the mood. I hope you will comeback in a few days to join us in what will be a new part of Europe for us.
