Sunday morning in Helsinki… let me just say that Sunday morning coffee\/caf\u00e9 culture leaves a lot to be desired. :)<\/p>\n

I went bouldering at Kiipeilyareena. They claim to have the highest rope climbing walls in Scandinavia, and indeed do they have some high walls! There are multiple storeys\/levels, kind of stacked on top of each other, and there is one sector with a number of routes which cover the entire height. They also have some fancy auto-belay system installed on some routes that lets you climb without a partner. The bouldering area is not very big and almost all walls have overhangs, something I’m not too fond of. Also, there were quite a few children and beginners there who didn’t pay much attention to the simplest of rules: don’t walk under other climbers, and share the routes. Overall the experience was mixed.<\/p>\n

Train to Turku in the afternoon, which is a pretty town.<\/p>\n

I’m on the ferry to Stockholm now. The trip is almost over.<\/p>\n
