Autumn fun!

(Wow this new look of blogger is confusing! ^^;)

Anyways, let's get to the point! :D My dear friend Ktiraam had her 30th birthday (!!!) this weekend and for the occasion, we had reserved a cruise to Stockholm! :D

A girls trip to a foreign country... okay, a neighbor we've already visited twice, this was our third trip to Stockholm together. ^_^ And we had funnn! And of course I took loads of photos too. Here are a few.

At Lahti railway station, we're about to go, yayyy! The adventure starts here.
We visited Stockmann in Helsinki to eat at a hamburger place "Carolls"
and saw these adorable goldfish (koi) in a  pool
I "heart" you. ;P This was at the harbor on our way to the Viking Line terminal. ^_^
And then we stepped into the ship. It's always such a great feeling to go there, even the smell of the ship makes me happy. And there were tons of people and the atmosphere was really happy. We had our cabin on the 5th floor, far from the ship's motors and the dance place so it was really calm too. ^_^
We went to eat soon after the ship left the harbor. I ate a shrimp sandwich...
like I always do there. :P Irish coffee with it. Yum yum yum!
Ktiraam is fighting with her long hair. XD It was really windy at the deck. ^_^
At night we went to the nightclub and bought drinks. With the drinks we got these light-wand
thingies and of course we had to do weird stuff with them. Here are a few pics of our "art" XDD
And then already morning it was and off to Stockholm we went! We roamed around the old town
and saw this tiny cute window, of course I had to take a photo of it. ^_^
And as our tradition is, we went to drink cups of Chococcino in Chocoladkoppe,
this cute little gay-cafe. We love that place! Our waitress was really nice to us so we
rewarded him with a drawing we drew while drinking our drinks. ^_^
Lucky us! We came to the Royal castle just in time of the changing of the
guards. It was great to see! Lots of handsome soldiers in uniforms with
guns in their hands. ^_^ 
It was raining all morning and there was a lot of water on the streets. So the
birds decided to take a bath. It was so much fun to watch them play in the water. ^_^
And then we went around the town taking photos. We had so much time that we ventured to roads
where we've never been before. And it stopped raining too, yayy!
This handsome guy greeted us in front of this gorgeous building,
which I still don't know what it is...? =P
A little house. A very little house. XD
There was a Mapplethorpe show in a museum on the way to the ship.
If we had had more time, I would
have dragged Ktiraam there. :D
Water on the deck. It was so brilliantly bright and pretty! ^_^
And of course, since I had my iPod with me, we had to check our mail and
facebooks during the night- they had a really good net connection at the
ships cafe. ^_^
Mooooonlight. It was so pretty! ^_^
So pretty that I took tons of photos. :P
When we came back to Finland, we went to eat breakfast to our favourite cafe (Cafe Esplanad) and I
ate this yuuuuuummmmmyyyy roast beef sandwich. ^_^
