Finland - Estonia - Finland

Heavy met me at the airport Wednesday evening with cold Lonkero and we came home to chill. Then yesterday morning we headed to Katajanokka, met with "the sisters" and boarded the Viking XPRS and headed towards Estonia over the Baltic sea. Lonkero was going down nicely and we watched some karaoke renditions of Finnish classics by various people including "the sisters" who were in a fine voice.

Tallinn was beautiful and the weather gods gave us uninterrupted sunshine. I bought a new handbag and a T-shirt before we stopped to have steak for lunch with lashings of Lonkero. Not a bad loking little town.

Back on the Viking XPRS the karaoke fever gripped "the sisters" and some other travellers and Heavy and I showed our support from behind the Lonkero glasses.

In Helsinki we headed to PataÄssä bar in Mariankatu where we were dancing "old school" Finnish style with various partners wich was fun. Of course there was karaoke and "the sisters" kept singing the night away.



This morning we are feeling somewhat fragile but we need to get our heads in gear for the Perkele bar tonight and no doubt there will be more Lonkero. Good times!
