In January I was informed by my TC (Traveling Companion) for the trip to Tallinn and Helsinki that she had already special ordered her favorite Finnish Breakfast. In fact, it was January 20th at 8:12pm that she informed me that I would be having rice bread for breakfast when in Finland.

We took the 16:00 ferry from Tallinn to Helsinki, operated by Tallink–it was […]
I’m off to Tallinn and Helsinki, back here late Sunday night.
In Tallinn, we’re staying at the Saku Rock Hotel – a B&B – Bed and Beer, that is.
