Hi Mom,

Here we are again We had a nice trip to the Central Finland, but now we're back in Helsinki again.

Here you can see some pictures of the postcrossing meetings where we have been. We have wrote a few postcards there with our friends We were really amazed at the first meeting when we saw how many postcards the Finnish postcrossers sent, but soon we got used to it.

May Day is a big happening here in Finland. We had a party and we got some donuts and quite strange Finnish baked goods called Tippaleipä. They looked funny, but tasted delicious

The next day we went to visit my host's friends about 10 kilometres from the city. We went there by bus There was a great Japanese garden and we wanted to have our picture taken with the dragon. After that trip we got a big bowl of ice cream at home

And talkink about ice cream - they opened a Ben & Jerry's ice cream bar here and of course we went there to have some delicious ice cream  We sat there on a park, trees have became green here already

One Sunday we were walking around and saw the Parliament House of Finland. It was a big and impressive building. We walked to the Olympic Stadium - and went to the tower of it. The views from there were just amazing, but we didn't want to get our picture taken there, it was just too windy and we were a bit scared...
