Honeymoon - Finland: Rovaniemi - Helsinki

It was the end of Rovaniemi... we took the bus all the back to Rovaniemi airport. Took about 3 hrs in total. We were early at the airport since the timing of the bus was fixed. 
This was the bus... 



 The airport is really quite small... and the cafĂ© is so-so... 




Beautiful sky upon departure. 

We took Norwegian Air to Helsinki, cost about $333 for 2 person. 
Upon arriving at Helsinki, we took their train HSR from the airport to city centre. Cost 5 euros per person. Took about 30min to city.

The train is clean and nice looking, spacious too!

The screen show the journey, hard to get lost. City centre is the last stop.



We went to check in at our air bnb, hurried did some laundry before heading out for dinner. 
The sunset is early, so it gets dark pretty early.

We went to Lappi Restaurant for a good Lappish meal! The ambience was quiet and cosy. We had a traditional salmon soup for starter, reindeer fillet and fried whitebait for our main course. The whitebait wasn't quite nice for me as I find it too jelat after eating a few. Maybe because it's fried? 








We enjoyed our night stroll back and planned for the next day.
