Everyone likes chocolate, right? Have you ever tried sweet and salty chocolate? How about chocolate filling with liquorice? :
Finland seems to be the right choice to try some original liquorice with chocolate. Let's start in Helsinki :
In the hot summer day in Helsinki, many people enjoyed swimming in the ocean, they even set the swimming pool in the ocean!!. It was on friday morning in the market near the city harbour:
As the finnish flag is shown, it is supposed to be fresh finnish strawberries, we bought some of them, including some finnish sweet green peas:
It is a kind of huge peas in comparison sugar peas you can eat completely. This finnish pea shell is not edible. We were on the way to the sea fortress called "Suomenlinna." :
There is a tiny beach where local people or visitors go swimming with family, friends or couples:
We hiked to the only picnic shelter:
The interior is like a wooden hut in the forest equipped with seatings and toilets:
A lunch break would be nice with some berries we bought from the market:
The problem was the finnish blue berries colores the fingertips redish after eating with hands. It would be wise to use a fork. Do not worry, you can wash it away given enough time... maybe 10 times... It sticks to the fingers very well :D. Before we left finland to Sweden and Norway, we found other liquorice chocolate balls like truffles :
Also many of them at the airport:
Our last sweet and salty moment indeed!
