Suomenlinna is actually a part of Helsinki. You can go there only by ferry, it`s an island. Where we will live, is already a part of the fortress. From Lahti, where we are now, it is omething over 100 kilometers south. All the ships leaving the harbour in Helsinki, have ro go through the tight channel before Suomenlinna. Navigation there is not easy. I heard, once in a war they just blocked it by sinking a ship there, so nobody could attack.
I will make lot`s of photos and post it here smiley: wink
This kayak stuff I tried once in Germany already, and t went good, so I think there is no problem. And I have to get rid of some kilos I gained over the time I was ill.
