Hi Carol!
Glad you made it to Finland and in particular, Kevo! That's quite the story and lots of things that someday you can look back on and really laugh. That is what travel is all about, lots of mistakes and flexibility! Glad that Kim and her sister were able to meet you somewhere in between :) I must say that I am jealous of all that GREEN and lack of snow! Heck, that just isn't fair. Fairbanks is warming up and the tripod went out in Nenana today --- so there is hope!
Looking forward to the rest of your journey!
Cheers, Janet
