here's another picture from helsinki. this is the lutheran cathedral off the senate square, as seen from uspensky cathedral (subject of the other photo i posted already).

i didn't really do that much in the way of sightseeing on this trip, and only have a few more photos i might post (and none at all from sweden, where i spent the least time and had the least down-time). all of the photos i have were taken as i walked around helsinki early one morning. i never fully adjusted to the time difference, and woke up very early almost every day. (actually, i think the long day screwed up my internal clock more than the time difference.)
