Comparing shapes in Oulu


Rovaniemi seems to be a town almost totally reliant on Santa. Yvonne goes with the others to pay him a visit, which turns out to be not that interesting. Tourist numbers there are light and the elves struggle to get their photograph commissions for the day. Our other highlight here is the local Arctic museum where we enjoy several hours learning more about living up here. The range of outdoor sports in summer and winter is amazing. Further south on our way to Helsinki we have lunch and change trains at Oulu. This looks to be a pleasant seas side town with its rather imposing and intriguing fat man statue. Something to research later after RDK compares outline figures.
