    • Short transit time

      Helsinki May 23, 2013 at 3:35 AM

      As someone who works in wholesale travel, I have booked super cheap flights to Europe with QF/AY on a travel agent special.
      I am concerned about the short transit time in HEL though. Anyone offer any tips on whether they have achieved the transit? I have heard that HEL is a good quick airport.
      Thanks

      Any other way to get to Ranua Zoo tomorrow (9/5)?

      Rovaniemi May 8, 2013 at 2:11 PM

      I'm in Rovaniemi for one day tomorrow and wanted to visit Arktikum in the morning and then travel to Ranua Zoo at about 1300. Based on the Ranua website, this should have been possible, however, as tomorrow is Ascension day, the usual 1320 bus isn't running so I would have to catch the 845 bus and come back at 1017 (which only gives me half an hour at the zoo) or at 1720 (in which case Arktikum will be closed). I've had a look at car rentals but these are expensive. Is there any other way to get there by public transport? Or is someone heading that way around 1300 so that I can catch a ride there? Any suggestions/advice appreciated here or to marzlmr@gmail.com.

      Taxi from Turku to Naantaly and back

      by manuna Online Now Feb 8, 2010 at 5:42 AM

      Is it possible to take a taxi between the two cities? What will be approximate charge? I want to be flexible with my time-table and want to save money. There will be 4 of us (2 adults and 2 children. But my elder son will be 16, so I guess he is considered as an adult) So I think that may be taxi will be a better decision then Moomibus? We are planning to visit Moomiworld and Vaski island in one day and be back in Turku in 19:30. Is it real or this is too much? Thank you.

      Ferry Stockholm - Turku

      Hi, I would like to take the ferry Stockholm - Turku with my camper van and visit Finland. Knowing that the trip takes some 11 hours, how do I keep the fridge and freezer working? Viking Lines says there is no possibility to connect the camper on electricity nor gas? Are there other possibilities to cross the Baltic sea or any tricks to keep the food cool? Thanks

    • Big Blue Marble Pen Pal

      by GregBradley Online Now Jan 24, 2007 at 9:06 PM

      I know this is a long shot, but I had a pen pal from Turku in the 1970's. I was put in contact with him through a television show in the U.S. called The Big Blue Marble. I can not remember his name. All I remember is that he had a little brother and both of them had the blondest of hair, which I am sure is not uncommon. I was living in Oregon, USA at the time. What is the population of Turku? Is it so large that I would have no chance of finding my old pen pal? Greg
