White Tampere

This trip took place towards the end of November in 2004. I was working on a project that covered 3 different countries, Sweden, Finland and USA. This is my second trip to Finland, the first trip was to Helsinki in 1995. This is also the first time to Tampere, which is situated at the north west of Finland. The trip was not so straight forwards. I have to fly on small 25 sitters Fokker from Helsinki to Tampere. The journey only took less than 25 minutes. The first photo were taken in the Fokker flight, as you can see most of the white spots were lakes covered by snow.
The night view from the hotel. Tampere is a nice city and a little medieval like city. With the lights on, it looked even more magical. Look at the amount of snow, this photo is taken outside of my client's factory area. The snow are thick and difficult to walk.

The building of my client. There was no sunlight throughout the week. The brightest that I have ever seen is just like what you see now in the photo, grey is the brightest colour in the winter for this Nordic country.
