From Turku to Stockholm

After Helsinki we went to Turku because it was there where we had to start our short voyage to Sweden from. We had a few time before the boat (or how it's called in English) would have come, so we were shown the Turku Cathedral and the house where people usually gather before the beginning of the Christmas day is announced.

We had very few time in Turku, so after a short excursion we went to the ferry. Silja Line was amazing. 12-decks ferry, it looks like a swimming 12-stored house with 3000 people living there. All the cabins are clean and nice, all the staff is friendly, all the food given for dinner is just fantastic, and the views you can see form the 12th deck... they can't be described by simple words. I didn't feel we were swimming, I enjoyed being there and was walking around the ferry all the time. After a beautiful dinner we went shoppimg for a while, and then walked and enjoyed the travel.

I went to bed very late and it wasn't very clever of me because we had to get up at 5 am, because of the early breakfast.
