Lahti Finland. Border crossing from Russia by car. World Ironman championship opening ceremony. 4K

Lahti, Finland here we come. We arrived in Lahti Finland with a family friend who lives there. Russian border crossing hard, caught in trap easy to get caught in. We were holding people up, they will only process 1 group at a time. Irina had to Ring Australia to our son, luckily, he was home to take photo of our marriage certificate to show. We had been into Russia 4 times and never been asked before. It could have been a major disaster. Finally got into Finish border security who were ridiculously insane. we had a flight out of Helsinki tomorrow, and all they were interested in was our whole trip through Europe and our Mediterranean cruise. After more than half an hour, welcome to Finland!! We spend the afternoon in Lahti then head for Helsinki where we were staying overnight. The following day I have a tour of Helsinki with my wife's niece. It was a fantastic morning with great information that I have passed on through this Vlog as Mya shows me the history of Helsinki. Travel with us @Aussie_on_dream_travel-dn5ht from Australia through Russia, now across Europe with this series of informative Vlogs. How many times we had to improvise with last minute changes. finland #lahti #worldironman #skijumpramps #gulfoffinland #beautifulcity
