Adventure is out there!

I woke up this morning and thought it would be a good day to go to Finland.  So, tonight at 7:20, I leave for Helsinki with a two hour layover in Reykjavik, Iceland.  From Helsinki, I have a puddle jumper to Joensuu, Finland.  Juhani Merilainen, mayor of this town, writes "though Joensuu may not often be your actual destination, after arriving you'll certainly find your journey was worth the trouble."  I suppose I'll find out what he means by this tomorrow.

For this nine-month winter adventure, I am bringing along two bags and a backpack.  Here's a picture for you:


As the small, energetic red-headed Ellie exclaims in the movie Up, adventure is out there!
