After a few weeks of regular rain showers each day, Sunday looked to be especially nice so we found our way to Seurasaari Island by a quick bus ride from the center of Helsinki. We were looking for one of the seasonal summer restaurants that are found on small islands around the city, a few of which I've posted pictures of earlier. These will close down soon so we wanted to try one while we still had the chance. What we didn't know was how extensive the historical exhibits are on the island, and we only saw a portion of them so we'll definitely be back to see more, and to go to the museum too. There is a Lapp cottage and a tree hut for storage, an interesting fence made of logs, a little summer house, plus some nice swans we saw on our way off the island and the bridge back to the bus. Seurasaari is a must-see in Helsinki.
