Natural rising day! Tour didn't start until 10 and we got an hour back so
things were pretty relaxed.
After a drive along the coastal road through woodlands and the lake
country to Hvittrask, the former home of the famous Finnish architect
Eliel Saarinen. Architecture famous for its natural stone and logs.
It was lovely and the snack we had there was yummy.
Then a tour of the city and a stop at the famous Lutheran Cathedral and Temppeliaukio
Rock Church. Which was actually hewn out of a rock.
In the Senate Square we tasted a unique Tar and Licorice flavored ice cream. The tar came from
trees and tasted like burnt wood.. it was an experience.
We came back and plopped. Got a snack and watched MAMMA MIA with Sue's favorite Colin
Firth. She loves him. Leah doesn't get it.
Waiting for a $10 gift shop to open... the shopping addiction continues, getting
dinner, and then seeing a magic show!
Stockholm tomorrow! Looking forward to it
Hello! have you finally gotten our comments? Whos Colin Firth?
ReplyDeleteHave you tasted burnt wood before?
That's probablly why they call it Temppeliaukio
Rock Church! :)
