Helsinki

12th February at 5pm my classmates and I took the ferry from Stockholm to Helsinki. I had never been on a ferry like this before - there was almost everything one needs to have fun and a full tummy. A big shop with food, clothes and loads of alcohol, a bar, disco, karaoke, circus, some strange "dance" show, Laura´s cards against humanity and our funny group!

Helsinki is a nice small and quite a "young" town only ca 300 km away from Peterborough - maybe my next destination?

12 februára o 5 večer sme sa s mojimi spolužiakmi vybrali trajetkom do Helsiniek. Nikdy predtým som nebola na trajekte ako tento - bolo tam takmer všetko čo človek potrebuje, aby bola sranda a taktiež, aby človek mal plné brucho.
Veľký obchod s jedlom, oblečením, kopou alkoholu, bar, diskotéka, karaoke, cirkus a čudná "tanečná" show, Laurine karty proti ľudskosti.

Helsinky sú pekné, malé a celkom "mladé" mestečko, iba 300 km vzdialené od Petrohradu.

 disco time
 Finnish version of semla with jam, the swedish one has almond cream inside/ fínska verzia semle, tá švédska má namiesto džemu mandľový krém vo vnútri
 this is nowadays a very nice restaurant and café at the port, but in the past it was a little stand where sailors used to buy milk and around (nowadays is one of the main squares with the town hall) used to be only a grass area with gazing cows/ Dnes pekná reštaurácia a kaviareň  pri prístave, v minulosti tu stál stánok s mliekom veľmi obľúbený medzi moreplavcami. A tam kde je dnes námestie s radnicou, sa v minulosti pásli kravy.


 railway station/ železničná stanica
 a church carved into the rocks/ kostol vytesaný do skál
 chapel of silence on the main square/ kaplnka ticha na hl. námestí

 here used to stand the above mentioned stand with milk/ tu stál hore spomínaný stánok s mliekom
 something like Viennese Nachmarkt but roofed, niečo ako viedenský Nachmarkt
