Starting our collection

This AirBnB is a bit of a curate's egg. Not well equipped in some respects. In others, very well equipped as it has some really nice glassware. Drinking out of Iittala glasses all week provoked us today to take a trip up to the factory shop at Arabia to start our collection (in the form of two beer glasses and two red wine glasses). We're actually testing the beer glasses this evening, before putting them back in the box to take home.

Met up with EK this morning to discuss her project, and then saw PM briefly before lunching with DJ and his partner, who was a funky chap and raised briefly the irony of us discussing the eccentricities of Finns with a real life Finn sitting there listening to us.... After that, we made it to Arabia and back to the AirBnB on one tram ticket. Since changing the system, they've extended the time for one ticket, which is good (as it's also more expensive). Packing now for the return home tomorrow.
