Home from
OULU

We had a few hours in the morning to walk around the 'downtown' market area of OULU before catching our train back to Espoo. Originally we were scheduled to leave Oulu at about 5:30 p.m. which would have been a really, really late night returning for us. Fortunately, we were able to change our tickets to leave shortly before 1:00 p.m. allowing us to return at a decent time. Love that!!
It was a beautiful snow falling as we walked around. The McDonald's below was a very unique entrance. We just like the design! We did NOT eat there. Can you see the little cluster of GRAPES over the doorway. Have not seen that before.
We picked up a couple of pulla breads to eat on the train.....along with a carton of MILK! Can't have pulla with the milk now can we! It sure was good.......both the pulla and milk! The train did have a dining car but we chose to have a little snack instead.
Beautiful scenery as we traveled along back to Espoo.....
As we walked from the bus stop at the top of our hill down to the asuntola, the TEMPLE was there to greet us, as always! Looking just as beautiful as it always does.
AAAHHH.....it is good to be back home. Looking forward to yet another wonderful week. It is Helsinki Stake and Estonia week. Lots of familiar names here at the guesthouse!
