Pre-Easter in Helsinki

I had such a lovely time with my dear friend, Saija, who I stayed with for a couple of nights in Helsinki. I'm glad I went there already on Tuesday - that way we had Tuesday evening and all of Wednesday to wander around and experience Helsinki. 

So, on Tuesday we had drinks and dinner at a very nostalgic Finnish restaurant called Sävel - very nice atmosphere and they serve the most amazing aioli with their burgers - yummy! On Wednesday we took off to the Finnish Museum of Photography (my first time there!) at Kaapelitehdas, followed by shopping, amazing sushi at Sushi n' Roll (in Eira), cake eating at Kakkugalleria, and last, Saija's Danish language course with Danish smørrebrød... Great stuff!:)

Here are a few of my favorite shots from that part of my Easter Holiday - the rest (from my home town and Ostrobothnia) will come in another blog post.
