Day 12 - Helsinki

After a few minor mishaps on land (Emily and Helena overslept then locked their key in the room), Captain Vesty was at home again this morning as we boarded the MS Star to Helsinki.
We had breakfast on the ship then most of us slept for a while. Once in Helsinki we hopped on a hop on, hop off tourist bus around the city. This showed us the main sites then we hopped off for a look in the cathedral. For lunch we went to Hard Rock Cafe, then headed to the Guide and Scout HQ. We were taken to a room with refreshments where we were given a presentation about the Finnish scout movement and watched a video of Roverway - an international event which they held last summer. The staff told us where the scout shop was so we found that and bought lots of badges.
We got back on the ferry (although it was the MS Superstar this time!) and had a rather rough crossing back to Estonia. We are all very much looking forward to a good nights sleep tonight!
