Great Scandinavian Road Trip: Day 14: Jax lands in jail

It's true, well sort of. My hotel in Helsinki is a converted prision (though it's actually well located and quite nice inside). Today was a long drive to see a castle in Savonlinna, the fortified city of Hamina, and Porvoo. The castle was nice, though you could only go into a few rooms for some reason. Hamina was interesting, but not something you could really take a picture of except from the air. I did stay and watch a couple innings of finnish baseball. It's quite a bit different from what I'm used to. Porvoo was a bit of a let down. The old district was smaller than I expected and all the little shops there had closed by the time I arrived.

On a lighter note, I think the Finland tourism people made a slight mistake in naming their magazine.
