A day trip to Helsinki from Tallin!
Helsinki Cathedral; Evangelical Lutheran cathedral originally built from 1830-1852 as a tribute to the Grand Duke of Finland, Tsar Nicholas I of Russia. It was also known as St Nicholas' Church until the independence of Finland in 1917.
Christmas lights flicker in the stillness,
casting shadows that dance on empty streets.
The air holds its breath,
a quiet pause between moments.
Voices drift on the wind,
fragile threads of connection.
In the glow of this season,
hope waits to be found.
Merry Christmas to all!
May your hearts be warm,
your homes filled with joy,
and your days touched by peace.
