Höpöhöpö - Nonsense!


That so far is my favorite Finnish word.  So we have been in Finland for 3 (kolme) days and are settling in nicely.  Our accommodations are efficient but comfortable and are not too far outside of the city. Yesterday we had a great lunch at the Finnish Art Museum but got drenched on our way there.  Needless to say we spent the rest of the day in wet socks and pants. Last night we visited the US Embassy for a party which was pretty swanky and went on a tour of the city this morning.  We saw this sculpture in Sibelius park by artist Eila Hiltunen. The weather has been cold enough for me to have to wear my winter coat! And it has rained on and off since we have been here. Today I skipped the second half of Christian's orientation to come back and use the Internet.
