And again for a day-lit look in front of the famous Helsinki cathedral.
Some of Topi's (Finnish nickname) breathtaking photography skills...
...and some of mine.
At the mökki where we spent our Friday night in Lieso (or as we call it, Lammi)
with some local brew
and fine Finnish craftsmanship (he made it himself!) The hanging twig (not to be confused with the birch tree-ish thing behind it is called a vihta in Finnish. It's used for whipping yourself or your friends in the sauna. I think it's hilarious... and quite therapeutic. It makes the sauna smell nice and opens up your pores.)
and protection from bears thanks to Tobias' washboard abs. (That thing is actually used to roll to boats into the water. But shh.)
There was a little bit of this...
... and a little bit of that...
... and some more of this... (don't be fooled, this is a different fire!)
The next day consisted of many delicious Finnish foodstuffs.
And the night was comparable but spent at a different cottage, on another beautiful lake, with slightly less photo taking...
...and an abundance of wild animals.
P.S. Big thanks to Tobias for posting all these photos on Facebook!
