First, I arrived on Thursday night in Helsinki after working all day at ESTEC and went for a rock concert in some underground pub. That was a quite nice kick off for the trip! Next day we were sightseeing in Helsinki and we managed to visit the hottest tourist spots in the city, ahh, and Seppo's lab in Helsinki University of Technology.
Next day we moved to Oulu, very very close to the Artic Polar Circle, and that started being cold... I really enjoyed being there for 3 days. We went walking on the frozen sea, swimming in a frozen river, sliding downhill using a sledge, cross-country skiing, snowboarding on a frozen lake with a snowbike as propulsion... Ahh, and we also visited an ice castle called LumiLunna where everything was made of ice and went to Sweden half an hour. I only missed auroras on the sky... Sauna at night was other of the nice points of finnish way of life ;-)
Some nice shots now:
A lounge in LumiLunna used as a restaurant. Notice that the walls and even the table and stolls are made of ice!
This is the frozen see with an island on the right. If there is something cool in Finland that is landscapes!
More photos in the future ;-)
