I think officially for me today this has been the nicest, warmest, absolutely beautiful day in Espoo. The sun is out. We only had to layer once to go out. I took some pictures of the shops that are around us right now. They have varied since we have been here. I love the location where we live. I have always thought it would be fun to live above a shop, so that everything is just right there. The long winter has made me appreciate the warm weather we had today even if it is only 11 degrees(52 degrees F). I am so excited to go exploring this summer and see all that Finland has to offer.

This is taken from my balcony. They have put out seating now since the spring has officially arrived. It's a little sandwich shop called Picnic, it's a little sandwich shop.

 

This is the view from the other direction. The little stand down there is selling strawberries, blueberries and green beans. The store behind it is Stockmann. Very nice department store. It also has a grocery store. Very expensive. Just window shop here mostly. haha.
