Roadtrip 2020 Finland

Our blog has been silent for over two years since our roadtrip in USA and our return to Finland. Last summer we spent mostly at home and in a Scout's camp. This year we decided to start our holidays travelling around Finland. Today is our first day on the road. We left Lahti around 2.00pm and we drove through Kouvola, Lappeenranta and Imatra to our first stop in Puumala. 

Puumala is along Finland's biggest lake Saimaa and has a bridge crossing an inlet. The bridge is famous for its elevator to a cafe and viewing deck. This summer a famous Finnish film star is selling Georgian Hatsapurs on Puumala's market square, so of course we had to stop and say hello to Ville Haapasalo. We have to say the Hatsapurs were delicious. We had a small picnic and visited the viewing deck and we continued our way to Savonlinna.

In Savonlinna we found our way to Vuohimäki camping site, where we put up camp and Krister & Kaj went to buy us some food and missing equipment.  Once they returned we went for a swim in Saimaa, had dinner and before brushing our teeth and going to bed we played few rounds of Uno.
