« A soggy Helsinki Day on a Finnish tall ship. »

Helsinki will be empty by evening as people flee to their summer cottages to eat, drink and dance around the Juhannus bonfires. The forecast calls for rain through Sunday so it's sure to be a bit soggy and chilly....just like last year. It is supposedly summer, but I prefer to call it the 'not-winter' season since this weather is what we get in March back home. :) But, at least it's not snowing and what's not to love about white nights, cold beer and grilled sausages with friends even if a bit moist? I'm looking forward to getting out of the city and not doing Finnish homework for a week or so. Happy Juhannus to all. :)
