Helsinki, Finland

Out of all the places I had intended to visit while in Sweden, it certainly never crossed my mind that I would also explore places like Helsinki. It started out as a potential trip to Kiruna but because we all really only had time for a long weekend and not an entire week we opted for another frozen option :) Above you can actually see me standing on a bowie in the Helsinki Harbor with Kara! The day was absolutely gorgeous and all of us decided to celebrate the sunny weather by getting ice cream....and the best part is that it couldn't melt because it was below freezing outside! As far as the other pictures go, you have me and Mel in front of some random statue we saw in a park as well as some scenic frozen harbor shots. This is probably most boring to people who come from cold places but I find walking on water kind of neat! One thing for sure, it makes distances so much shorter when you can just cut across the river whenever you feel like it.
