Finland!

We're both kind of tired of traveling, but a change of pace should be good: Europe. Our first stop was Finland. Upon arriving and figuring out how to get to the hotel (more bus!), it was very odd to feel like we were in Denver again.

The hotel: Hotel Katajanokka - a Best Western hotel. This was a very odd, but nice hotel - a former jail. Our room was 2 cells that had been combined. Very odd, but really nice. The hotel breakfast was even good. Thumbs up for Finland!

The only real negative about Finland was the price of everything. Food was a bit costly - especially in comparison to Germany (where we are now). Donar Kebap - awesome lamb meat sandwiches - are 6 euros in finland and 2 in germany. Beer was about the same cost ratio, sadly. But, we had fun. Finland is really nice and beautiful. We did a lot of walking around the city. Not a whole lot of sightseeing.
