After an amazing day in Helsinki i continiued my journey to Oulu and stoped at Koupio. I knew this city from sports television. Every year a World Ski Jumping tournament takes place here on the little houseHill called Puijo. My Accomodation was on the Top of this tiny hill where the 3 “Ski Jumping Schanuzn” are placed.

There’s also a big Viewing Tower about 88m high with an rotating restaurant on it. The elevator brang me up to the viewing platform. But the problem was the bad weather. It was impossible to take nice pictures from the normally incredible roundview. I took my lunch in that restaurant one floor under the platform. Great Meal but a little bit expensive. 18 Euros for a piece of meat (Reentier-Meat - muuuhahaha) with mashed potatoes :-O.

Normaly i prefer cheaper meals, but ok, it was the only restaurant up there. After having lunch i had my first experience with finish saunas. Hot’N'aked -> Baked.So, in about one hour i will arrive at the trainstation in Oulu. I’am looking forward to see my room in the Students village in Otykla.greez grobe
