TRAVELLING AROUND THE WORLD

London, England 1991-2000

LONDON 1991

First time I was in London 1991. It was love from the first moment! I was dreamed about it the whole of my life and at last it was true! I tried to see everything in one week!!

Like everybody can understand, it was "mission impossible"! 

Imagine: RockCircus, Madame Tussaud, TowerBridge, Tower Casle, BigBen, Piccadilly Circus, Covent Garden, St Paul's Cathedral, Trips outside of London as Windsor, Canterbury Cathedral and Leeds Casle, etc. etc.

And that's why I have to come back over and over again...!

LONDON 1995

Second one was almost better than first one, because now I already knew what I want and how to get there! I had different friend with me and first we bought one week travelcard that we could travel around the London as easy as possible! I wanted to show her some fancy places and views so I had opportunity to see them again, and also lots of new places as example Greenwich and Cutty Sark, Event of Titanic, famous musical The Phantom of the Opera, etc.

 

 

LONDON 1996

This time it was part of the trip to London AND Paris! We had 2 weeks in London and we visited 1 day in Paris by EuroStar. (See page down).

LONDON 1997

January 1997 we had very cold winter in Finland. But when I landed to Stanstead Airport there was just like an early spring! Great! The whole week were warm and nice and I had really fun once again!

MILLENIUM TRIP 2000

Once again I had to see London and this time I wanted to experience all great things that millennium brings into that perfect city! I saw The Dome, British Airways LondonEye and many more new wonderful things! I also saw legendary Wembley Arena just before they started restauring it! 

This time I was planned to be there 2 weeks and in second one I had one of my friend with me. We had lots of fun!

North Norway 1993

Believe me or not! This is my summer holiday in 1993. I was around the north Norway trip with my mother. With my car I drove from westsouth Finland to northern Finland and then to Norway. In Kilpisjärvi there still was over half meter snow and iced lakes! Hrrrr! And it was 3th of June! Different vacation, eh? We visited among other smaller places in Tromssa and Narvik etc. and then drove back to Finland trought the north Sweden!
Paris, France 1996  

In 1996 we had wonderful one day trip from London to Paris by Eurostar! The whole Paris had to see only in few hours. Lots of fun and lots of running! But we did it! We saw all that we wanted and even more in a six hours. Eiffel Tower, Champs Elysee, Arch de Triumph etc. 

Riviera 1997  

Monaco, French - and Italian Riviera

(Diano Marina, MonteCarlo, Cannes, Nizza  etc.)

Toronto, Canada 1998  

That's unforgettable trip to Canada I made 1998. I went to meet one very special person in Toronto. We had lots of fun and I got tons of beautiful memories to remember afterward. He was my friend, my soulmate and my "travelguide" during my visit! =) Thanks for everything to him! Including the CN Tower and the courgeous SkyDome stadium in the picture, I saw also great famous Niagara Falls and lots of more! After all I had chance to meet some my relatives that I have never seen before. Never forget that trip!

Lake Garda, Italia 1999  

Garda, most beautiful small town and unbelievable lake in northern Italy. In September there still was sunny days and almost +30C. 

We visited in Venice one day and another day we went to old beautiful town called Verona and visited in its famous places as Arena of Verona and House of Julian. We also made around the lake trip by bus and one day we had a chance to go up to Italian Alpes, Dolomites. Can't wait to see all these great views again!

Söll, Itävalta 2004  

After long time I had a chance to make a trip to Austria. This time I wanted to see the famous Tirol and its Alpes! My hotel was in Söll, small village midlle of the Alpes and I made few daytrip all over the Tirol.

On a weekend we landed to Innsbruck airport and continued by bus to Söll. Sunday I spent discovering the village and afternoon I took a lift up to Hohe Salve. I spent all afternoon up there looking down to the village and all over two valleys front and back of the mountain.

Monday morning I took a post bus and a train back to Innsbruck. I spent the whole day there, walking all over the city and last I climbed to the famous Ski Jumping place Bergiesel. Up there you can see the whole city! That was wonderful.

Tuesday morning I ended to a small town called Kufstein. It was beautiful town upon a river Inn.

Wednesday was engaged for Austrian highest place Grossglockner. It was a daytrip by bus and I have never seen anything like it. Italian Dolomites were way more small experience. On the early evening we came back via Zell Am See.

Thursday morning I took a trip bus to Salzburg. I even were about 25 kilometers on Germany on my way to Salzburg! :)

Town was as beautiful as I was thinking! Lots of Mozart of course but also many other interesting things. I also went to the cafe of Hotel Sacher! Wow! It was slendid and the cake was delicious!

End of the vacation I spent in Söll and near, walking, shopping and just relaxing! Enjoying the world most wonderful views just from balcony of my hotel! What a vacation!!
