Back in Helsinki
Hiya!
Ok, I'm back in Finland now... The flight home went fine, except for the 18 kg excess baggage, for which I had to pay 240 euros, bloody hell!! Now I'm completely broke... But Aberdeen was worth it ;) And of course our dutch KLM pilot was sure to keep us updated on the Holland - Serbia-Montenegro game :) And at the Helsinki airport a customs officer stopped me flashing his badge (cool!), I guess I looked suspicious with my uncountable items of luggage. But he let me go when he heard that I had been away for 5 months.
We have great summer weather here: sun shining, blue skies and 26 degrees! In a wee while I'll go out to sit in the sun (with sunscreen, don't wanna repeat my Dublin burn!!!).
Yesterday I took the taxi from the airport and suddenly thought, oh my God, he's driving on the wrong side. Until I realized, he is driving on the right side. And at the airport I wanted to take the escalator up and almost walked onto the one coming down, because it was the one on the left side. So clearly I've stayed in Britain for too long ;)
Tata!
