Friday Mikko and Ritva took us a a wonderful tour of the Turku region. First we stopped at the Medieval church of St Bridget’s Convent

Then we went to the harbor area of Naantali. As you can tell from the pictures the weather was absolutely perfect. The high temperature yesterday was 82 degrees.

From Naantali we went to Ruissalo Folk Park. The entire island is a natural area set aside for hiking, biking and recreation.


We stopped for a delicious pea soup lunch at Ruissalon Honkapirni


On our way back to the house we stopped at Turku Cathedral.

Our final stop was to see the Caravelle FinAir jet that Mikko is helping to restore. The jet was the very first jet owned and operated by Finnair.
