Turku is the original Finland Capitol. It is a quaint old village, nice. We get a good sleep and go out to tour around the town. After several blocks of walking we end up at an outdoor market. Some snaps from there.

I had a long chat with this guy and told him about the Blog. He said that he would be famous world wide, and I agreed. Sorry, I did not get his face in the photo. But please visit his cart next time you are in Turku.

This old brewery had become a food court

We walked around the place for ages. Eventually, at Julie’s suggestion, I had:

Julie went back and got food for us. It doesn’t take a genius to work out what the cuisine was.
