Fat birds

I was just eating at Hesburger (for the second time ever) and I noticed some fat little birds eating up the crumbs. Usually I wouldnt look at a bird and comment on its general size, but these birds are really really obese. They could hardly hop to get the next crumb that dropped.
Other than bird watching today, I have seen the Turku castle, which was really nice. I think it is probably the best castle I have seen so far in my travels. Lots of really neat renaisannce and medieval artifacts. Tomorrow I am going to Jyväskylä to visit Johanna...

and I am excited to see her again. I havent seen her for a year! I phoned her last night and I think she was surprised to hear from me. I met my grandma's brother last night as well as his wife and daughter and they were really friendly. It was surprising to see how much Jukka looked like my grandma. I have pictures now that I have to send to her.
I cant believe how fast this little trip is going. I only have a few more days before I am back in the UK and working again! I got an email from coryna though and things worked out with her visa and passport. Hurray. So I will see her in stanstead on the 22nd.
Well, once again I am causing problems at the tourist centre, so I have to go.
