| After a chance bus ride over the Russian/Finnish border and a night in Lapeenranta we hitched our way to Helsinki where we set up camp (literally) for a few days. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| One of the first sights we saw at our campground was this man in wooden shoes, something we had only ever heard stories about. We sneaked this picture on the way out of the registration office. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Dave and our wonderful but ailing tent. We are proud to say that it did survive though, and by the time we returned home we had used it over 80 times. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| A view of Stockholm from the ferry (we were on route from Helsinki). What we saw of Sweden was absolutely fantastic. We stayed with a lovely couple in Nykoping (Niklas and Anna), whom we had met in NZ but unfortunately we don't have a picture of them to put on the website. After Nykoping we hitched and bussed our way to Helsingborg where Kendra was laid up for a week in the tent with mono (glandular fever). When she could walk and carry a pack again, we continued on to Copenhagen, Denmark. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Newhavn, Copenhagen. A lovely picturesque spot where people come to socialize whether it be at the cafes alongside or on the boardwalk itself. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Tini Lyng and her parents whom we stayed with in Copenhagen. We had such a wonderful time with them and even got to learn a bit of Danish! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
