Turku

The top photo is of the Handicrafts museum, very cool, and is Turku in about 1827. The second photo is of the river that cuts the town in half and most of the tourist stuff is located on this river. The third picture is of Turku Castle, my first castle ever to be able to visit (beside Disneyland:). The fourth pic is of the flower bed, Abo is the Swedish name of the town, and the red building houses a museum showing what wealthy people's homes were like in contrast to the handicrafts museum. The red building also houses a pharmacy museum with 'old' glassware, I still use some of the glassware on a regular basis. The last picture is from the market and all the flowers that were out. They also sold vegetable and fish in these markets too.
