We left Russia with the plan to stay in Helsinki for a night. Sad to leave Bryan, but excited to be somewhere that we can communicate and read the signs. Also looking forward to sneaker shopping. :)
Read the signs? Does one of you speak Finnish or Swedish?
My memory of Helsinki was that most everyone spoke English great, but the signs were more of a mystery. Since Swedish is at least Indo-European, we figured we'd maybe we'd recognize a cognate or two. It's a funny day when your best chance of understanding something is trying to read the Swedish.
