On our final day in Helsinki we took a stroll to the Hakaniemi Market hall (right) to see if there were any goods we could bring back to London with us. Well the answer is 'not really' as it was mostly fresh food and other perishables. I'm not going to write a detailed blog but you can go here if you want to read about it. Again we were given Helsinki's best weather :D
Some of the goods on offer. Market fruit and vegetables. Various smoked fish. Spices to add a bit of heat to Finnish food in the cold winter.
Yes, this tram was in Helsinki and not Melbourne.
We returned to the airport on the trusty bus that carted us in. Always one to look at the dutyfree on offer we found some Lapland specialities, bear soup and roast bear in a can. Umm... yum? We considered buying some to try back home but thought better as canned food is never as good as the real thing. Maybe next time in restaurant....
And on that note, we bid Helsinki adieu!
