Larsen's European Vacation - Day 13 - Jyväskylä

We spent our final day in Jyväskylä shopping the last minute souvenirs and seeing more friends and family.


I met Minna for lunch. Minna was my best friend in high school, and if you remember she came to NYC with her son last summer. I spent 4 wonderful days with her there. Sorry Minna it was such a short lunch but I had to run.

After lunch I walked to Täti's house (my nanny) and said farewell to her. It was so sad because who knows if I ever see her again.


We met my sister, Riitta and her fiancé, Sampsa for dinner. This was the first time I had seen my sister since we got to Finland. Before we arrived, she and Sampsa went on a vacation to Germany and got back just a few days earlier. I'm glad I got to see her.


The other side of the table. It was nice to get to know Sampsa. We are hoping that they come and celebrate Riitta's 50th next summer at our house.


My mom is eating her first escargot...ever. We all ordered them. They were delicious.

Mother and daughter. Together for the last time before we leave early tomorrow morning. Kiitos Äiti kaikesta. Meillä oli ihana matka, vaikka se olikin aika kiireinen.
