First Looooooong day of Trip

After leaving Plano at 2pm on Friday, I finally arrived at my hotel room in Helsinki at 4:15pm on Saturday afternoon. Since Helsinki is 8 hours ahead of Plano, that would be 8:15am in Plano or 18 hours after I left home. It was a very long day, and yet very little sunshine. The sun was almost down when we landed in Helsinki around 3:45pm. The picture is my bed in the hotel room and clearly the highlight of this day. As you can also notice, I secured a pint of sleeping potion (Beamish Irish Stout).


More tomorrow,
Tom
