Notes from a Nordic realm · 7:40am Aug 10th, 2018
I am currently in Helsinki. Here because the International Conference for Physics Students, an event I attended regularly in times past, is having an alumni thing, so I get to relive the glorious days of my youth, mixing travel and physics. To makes things more interesting, I lugged my backpack through Stockholm, and then spent a day cycling in the Åland Islands (between Sweden and Finland), before boarding an overnight ferry.
Took Rainbow Dash with me. Her mane flew very nicely in Baltic breeze, until knocking her over.
Given the heatwave across Europe I’m glad I decided to come here this year instead of going to the Mediterranean.
Oh, is that the new stunt Rainbow Dash has been practicing? I don't know, it looks like it still needs some work.
Ooooo, Rainbow Dash sparkle-mane. Pretty.
Looks like Helsinki needs more pegasi. Only one weather pony, even as awesome as Rainbow Dash, seems hard pressed... or bowled over.
Whee! Suomi mainittu!
Hope you'll have a good time at the conference, Pineta! We're having a brief return of the hot weather today, but it should cool down over the weekend. Want any suggestions for sights to go all tourist over?

Sure, throw any travel tips my way. I expect I'll be busy for the weekend, but should get a bit of free time after that. Kiitos.
¡You Pony-Physicists and your rockstar lifestyles!
I am extremely jealous. I hope Rainbow appreciates those open skies!
