Tietomaa Trip

It was a frantic morning as I rushed to prepare breakfast/lunch in 45 minutes right after waking up. Boiled potatoes and a fat sausage go exceptionally well together, and they cook fast too. Don't even have to wait for the sausage to thaw. Just throw the frozen sausage into the water. I had milk too, so it was a nutritious, filling, tasty meal.

I saw this poster at the notice board at the hostel. Seems interesting. Maybe I will go take a look.

Paper plane competition. Sponsored by Red Bull some more..

The entrance fee to the science centre (Tietomaa) was EUR 10, which I feel is fairly expensive. I thing EUR 5 would have been a more reasonable price. Then again, everything in Finland is expensive, and this sort of touristy place would jack up the prices more. However, I think that it is possible to enter without paying the fee. Oh well..

I think this clock is very nice

We watched the above in the theatre in Tietomaa. It is the largest screen in finland, measuring 12 x 16 metres. The documentary was nice.. I enjoyed it alot..

Making this puzzle should be as tough as solving it

Next we took a glass elevator up the tower where I took pictures of the view. The tower was much much much colder than the other parts of the science centre.

Random poster in the tower

The lightings in finland ah... cmi lor.

It's a hologram!

Need to stock up on biscuits for the Stockholm trip next week.. So tomorrow got to go do a bit of shopping and some packing. The most expensive part of the trip is probably the train ticket that is WITHIN Oulu. Feel so.... Dunno how to describe la.. I'll be leaving Oulu on Monday morning and I'll be back in Oulu on Friday, probably at night.
