Most visitors to Helsinki, Finland arrive by cruise ship and have only a few precious hours to spend in the city. This means they can seldom do more than visit the waterfront market and make their way up to the Cathedral Square. These are exciting and lovely but represent only a small part of Helsinki's charm.
With a little more time you can manage a walk along the Esplanade, a ride on one of the many tram lines, and visits to some of the major sites.
Thomasina in Tom Stoppard's mind bending time warping play, ARCADIA, observes that when you stir raspberry jam into vanilla pudding it will first swirl in streaks but ultimately will turn the entire pudding pink. If you stir the pudding in the opposite direction, the jam will not separate back out again. --LIFE MOVES ONLY FORWARD--NEVER BACK!--
