Very nice shots. How far is Helsinki from Amsterdam? My wife and I are
travelling to the Netherlands and Denmark in September.


Thanks, Helsinki is about 1500 km from Amsterdam. I recall one could
get two-way flights Helsinki-Dusseldorf for 200 eur, probably it's
cheaper with Ryanair etc.

Helsinki can be a bit dark and cold in late September though. (But I
suppose it's exotic for some people when trees are dropping their
leaves and stuff.) On top of that Finns have earned a great reputation
as shy and withdrawn people :-)

Denmark by my very limited experience is a very nice country. Pleasant
and well-kept by the looks of it. I once asked a half-stranger I met in
Usenet to house 3 people overnight, no problem. The breakfast was even
better than the bed :-)
