      I live right by a railway line and my friend who's lived here all his life tells me the kids used to have an absolute blast putting things like old washing machines on the tracks to watch the trains crush and smash them. I was like "weren't you worried you'd kill someone ?"

      Silja Symphony and Serenade are iconic ships, and revolutionary, having been the first ships to introduce the promenade walkway. They are important for the history of the Finnish shipbuilding industry (which btw still keeps building massive ships like the Icon of the Seas). They are kept in good condition because Finland probably loves ferries and ferry cruises more than any other nation on earth. These indoors promenades cannot be built anymore unfortunately due to regulations, so Tallink Silja cannot replace these ships with anything remotely similar. That's why they aim to keep these around for as long as possible.
      Btw I lived the first 20 years of my life about 400 meters from that ferry, and have taken it about 30 times probably. And now I work for Tallink Silja. Crazy how it goes :D.

So taking a high speed train to either of those cities on day 1 will bring you to Stockholm on day 2 without any hotel cost. And also, skip Marabou chocolate as it's holding company has interests in Russia. We don't want any money going there...

    You are back in my stream! So glad to see this trip! Not sure about the many train changes, but would love a flight to Stockholm and train to Lapland. You are always sure to let us see a variety of places! This was a good Winter getaway idea!!
