So we have been in Helsinki since Friday, the 14th. We tried to get visa's to enter Russia and see St. Petersburg and Moscow, but it doesn't look like it is going to work out. Too time consuming and expensive to deal with on a vacation. So we are off to Tallinn, Estonia tomorrow on a 3 hr. ferry. Love you all.

Konichiwa, from Sweden. 5 pictures taken, one guy, 5 times over for each of his friends. Just one of the common sightings at the main attractions of the cities we visit.

From Berlin it was to Amrum Island then to Copenhagen and now in Oslo

no postcards for germany available, so we give you beach picture. Leaving berlin tonight to head north.

These past few days here have flow by and we've barely had time to take it all in. We did catch the Anne Frank Haus, the Van Gogh museum, and the Hieniken Experience. Amsterdam has been quite lovely and actually ended up being a cute town, well I guess if you disregard the redlight district which was not pleasant to see. Some of the manicans in the windows move and they look so much like real people its,.....it's quite frightening.
