We left Bielefeld this morning at 7:00 AM and travel to the airport in Duesseldorf.  There were a lot of tears as we left.  After arriving in Helsinki and waiting on our luggage for almost 2 hours, we took a bus to our hotel and then took a train into the city and met Sonja, a former exchange student from Finland, who was in Goshen 2 years ago.  We ate dinner and then she gave us a tour of the city.  We returned to the hotel at about 12:45 AM.  It was just starting to get a little darker.  Most of the city pictures you see were taken at about 11 PM!
