Answer: not how you think.
Well, this week went by pretty quickly, and it's mostly picture-based!
Last Tuesday(elikää, my birthday), we went to Olkiluoto, which is - guess - a nuclear power plant just half an hour's drive north of Rauma!

Jokes, we actually just went to the visitors center(what do you mean, we can't just walk right up to the high-pressure, gives-off-enough-raw-radiation-to-melt-down-half-of-finland-if-something-goes-wrong nuclear reactor and take pictures?), but hey - how many people can say that they went to a nuclear power plant in the middle of Finland for their 20th birthday?
I can.
We learned a ton of finnish nuclear words(Reaktori = reactor, uraani = uranium, röntgensade = x-ray)...





We met Albert Einstein...

And there was a huge, hollow copper tube, so obviously we climbed in and took a myriad of pictures!







Took pictures at District Council - what an awesome group!

Then we had splits with the Tampere Zone Leaders! Elders McOmber and Jordan - two of my past companions!!
We played sähly for our morning exercise...

with brooms...

And as you can see, my dear Elder Jordan has not changed one bit...



Aand, to cap the pictures off, we had lunch with Matti, one of our members, after church on Sunday!

What a wonderful week it's been! Stay tuned next time for Return and Report at Espoo, and more adventures to come! I love you all! Stay strong, stay true!
Love,
Vanhin Bolingbroke
