Suomi-Finland 18 May: Pyhtää - Vironlahti
...a fresh morning...
Suur-Ahvenkosken koulu was first: the kids welcomed us in the gym hall...
Thanks for the meeting!
...a meeting on the road...
Our last school in Finland: Huutjärven koulu...
...as it was Sandro's birthday, the kids sang for him...
...and they got chocolate...
See you again!
In Kotka we met two runners; one of them came all the way from Lempaala near Tampere just to carry the torch for some distance!
...we explored the South-East of Finland, getting closer to Russia with every step...
...everybody goes eastwards...
Ilya set a tough pace for the last km's to the Finnish-Russian border...
We really enjoyed Finland with all its hospitality, stunning nature and millions of lakes!
Thanks for everything and see you again soon!
