Saturday in Helsinki = shopping!
I spent most of the day yesterday shopping - and following ideas given to me by three great online friends (two from Etsy, one from the ALR list). I started my Saturday in Senate Square looking up the Cathedral through the grey mist (photo 1). Then, across the street, the BEST shops! Talo, I’m planning on going back again after work this week. The handmade things in there are WONDERFUL; I found a great gift for Sam there. Then, I began walking all around, taking photos, and shopping, and admiring Finnish art and craft work too. I’m going to write more about my weekend over the course of the week (otherwise, I’d have nothing to write about except work, and I can’t write about THAT!)
So, enjoy these first pictures from Saturday, and I’ll write more over the next few days while I am in Helsinki!
