Ice Cream & Shopping @ Espoo!

I just had a great milkshake at Vohveli ice cream bar at Espoo. They have also wafers, or waffles or what ever you call them. On top of the delicious ice cream you can do some shopping. I found a broom for the patio deck and part of a 2 year birthday present for one special little Lady.

Go and check it out, it is worth the drive even from down town Helsinki.
