Random thoughts continued . . .

11. Finns know about Murphy's Law

12. The moon, sun, and sky do exist in Oulu ;)

13. French girls talk a LOT and laugh even more!

14. I have seen many a Finn donning dreadlocks. Truthfully, most don't look half bad.

15. The Finnish swastika has NOTHING to do with the Nazi's. They had it in use long before Hitler made it an infamous symbol.

16. The dessert Laskiaispulla was very dissappointing. It fools you in to thinking that the white crea is within the botom piece of bread, a long with some type of jam. All it is, is a whole piece of untasty bread, with untasty cream, and only a dollup of jam :(

17. The dessert Runebergin Torttu, on the other hand is wonderful!! If you get them too dry though they aren't the best. Also it is made with Rum; so if you like the taste of Rum you'll ike this. I guess I like the taste of Rum ;) haha

18. Oulu has been burned down at least 10 times.

19. Basic Finnish homes are expensive to build and not very spacious.

20. During the Winter War, Finns made saunas, and obivously used them! In fact, still today they use saunas during wars (even in the desert).
