Very lovely wine glass for a sparkling wine, of course a champagne too!

What a lovely wine glass to taste a sparkling wine! This is the most lovely wine glass ever for me.

It used to be a place I visited from time to time to enjoy a glass of wine. A sparkling wine was not always served with this glass, actually, it's only one time, I think. However, I really liked this lovely glass. The sparkling wine was so delicious and popping bubbles made me feel happy.

Since I had an unpleasant memory given by a friend at the time there, I'd gotten not to visit the place. It was like, my innocence was offended by her heartless, smug word.

Now I don't go there because of a different reason. I started trying organic wines, which broadened my horizons. My life is becoming more natural. 

I don't have to see a person dressed up, but lacking in intelligence and always late. It's been 1 or 2 years since several incidents I had growing doubts about.

Here I am at the moment, and know, staying away from those kind of persons is treating myself well. I can be myself.

FINNAIR in-flight meal and 3 kind of Marimekko paper cups on my return flight to Japan

Once I get on a direct flight, I can feel just relieved as it will bring me to Japan even if I'm sleeping!

It's fun time to lay back and see the movie with a drink😊  I enjoyed Fantastic Beasts♪ 

Look at this lovely Marimekko patterned paper cup💕  I wonder what they will serve on the plane!

I'm always looking forward to in-flight meal when I have a flight. I love to see how foreign meal is incorporated into in-flight meal. 

Speaking of fancy chocolate in Finland, KarlFazer Milk Chocolate is it! I saw it right and left at the shops in Helsinki Airport. I'm happy that it's kindly delivered to passengers and I'm able to taste it on board😍  Oh I see, it's cool same color as Finland national flag!

Now that I've photographed 2 kind of Marimekko paper cups, I want the 3rd too as souvenir pictures. Thanks to the corporation of the flight attendant, I could take pictures of a gray paper cup with a gray paper napkin. It's soft, gentle color...

I was not sure If I could visit Finland again, so I did everything I could even for paper cups. 3 colors paper cups are my precious memories together with other wonderful things at my first time in Finland.

The navy blue & white FINNAIR plane like the national flag in Finland. I came back to Japan safely. 

This is a record of 3 nights 5 days trip to Finland in June, 2019. I haven't traveled to any foreign countries since then.

I recommend you to experience ★HESBURGER★ when you visit Finland♪

Do you know that HESBURGER is more popular and reasonable than Macdonald in Finland?★HESBURGER★ is a casual hamburger shop in Finland. I'd like to experience it by all means while I am in Finland! I came to HESBURGER within the station premises in Helsinki Central Station before heading for Helsinki Airport. 

I ordered a simple set : a burger, fried potatoes, and a hot coffee😊  It seemed to be the best way to know the taste of HESBURGER itself. 

What I liked about the shop is that they provided real whole milk so as to let us pour it into our coffee as we liked. I do like black coffee. The combination of fries as well as a burger, and black coffee is exceptional. And then, I add real milk (not the common portioned cream full of trans fat!) and enjoy it like 'cafe au lait'. It's the way I like as I mentioned it several times in past articles.

The mark ☆ on the coffee cup is cool, isn't it?  My last meal in Helsinki was a cute one, and it became a cute experience.

I got out of Ring Rail Line at Lentoasema station connected to Helsinki Vantaa International Airport. But it was very long until I finally got the boarding gate. The procedure was not smooth for me and what a long way lined with a lot of souvenir shops I walked! Many times I worried, like, "Am I going in the right direction?".  I felt relieved when I reached my boarding gate at last!

Used to American Airpot, it was tough for me because I didn't expect it took so long from check-in to the boarding gate. However, looking back, it's also a good travel experience I learned to help me grow as a person. 

Departure morning! Attractive castle-like buildings in Helsinki, Finland

Europe is filled with beautiful, historical structures. You will find numerous ancient buildings when you visit the place. Here in Finland, you can also find a lot of attractive buildings.

I thought tall vertical windows of the buildings are characteristic and it's one of the reason that those buildings look castle-like. Each fine building painted in its own color took my breath away.

I took last pictures of the street where I'd roamed around before I went back to Hotel St.George soon I had to leave. The citizens in Helsinki live at this condominium, or apartment, I wonder? 

Look at this architecture.  It's majestic! 

Helsinki is a clean and beautiful city. Each design of the building was amazing and seeing different buildings was joy for me. Let's take another souvenir "Kitty cat" photo here. Now 3 years later, I checked online and knew it was"Kitty Cat Beauty Center". Wow!

I came back to my room of Hotel St.George. Only 3 nights, but it was a starting point to go to every spot of Helsinki in my own way. I still got some time until I departed for Helsinki Central Station.

I lied down on the bed for a little while. In my heart, I said thank you to the room.
