It&#8217;s a beautiful day so far, a lot different than what we had left back in St Petersburg. Since we had a successful day with the kids in St Petersburg, we thought we try again. Besides, not very many people go to Finland and the only time we really hear about them is during the Winter Olympics. I was actually excited to see it because I studied a lot of buildings built there in an architectural history class and it was the home of Alvar Aalto (Finland&#8217;s version of Frank Lloyd Wright).</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/29281775@N00/210037761"><img src="http://static.flickr.com/78/210037761_e9a8ed39ac_t.jpg" title="Helsiniki - Art" alt="Helsiniki - Art" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/29281775@N00/210037831"><img src="http://static.flickr.com/93/210037831_a97a961ebf_t.jpg" title="Helsiniki - Building" alt="Helsiniki - Building" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/29281775@N00/210037918"><img src="http://static.flickr.com/66/210037918_716a35209e_t.jpg" title="Helsiniki - Building 2" alt="Helsiniki - Building 2" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/29281775@N00/210038755"><img src="http://static.flickr.com/91/210038755_e0cec6d2ab_t.jpg" title="Helsiniki - Buying Ice Cream" alt="Helsiniki - Buying Ice Cream" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/29281775@N00/210039590"><img src="http://static.flickr.com/96/210039590_f16e1d01bc_t.jpg" title="Helsiniki - Ice Cream for Claire" alt="Helsiniki - Ice Cream for Claire" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/29281775@N00/210039959"><img src="http://static.flickr.com/63/210039959_95badf1304_t.jpg" title="Helsiniki - Maxie" alt="Helsiniki - Maxie" /></a></p> Sat, 05 Aug 2006 03:12:00 -0700 urn:uuid:9d13e4ff-1adb-4a07-b8c1-491aaf5ec835 Max Dunn http://blog.maxdunn.com/articles/2006/08/05/day-10-friday-aug-4th-helsinki-finland Trips and Vacations
