Winter in Helsinki

I just got back this morning from a mega-trip, starting in Helsinki and ending in Beijing via a lot of trains, taxis and airplanes (see itinerary here).  I've got lots of stuff running through my brain to blog about, but after a 3.5 hour red-eye flight home last night / this morning, I'm not sure now is the time.

In the meantime, here's some photos from stop #1 on our journey: Helsinki.  Apparently, Google's decided to make my photo snow.  Fun.

Note: I'm basically the opposite of a "snow bird"... let's call just call me a "tropics bird."  Snow is way more fun when you eventually get to go home to 80 degree weather.
