Day 4 Terave Mita Kuulu, Finland here we come. Farewell/Adios amigos America

That was Hello how are you in Finnish which is the only words I know in Finnish.

Anyway we woke early this morning well I did anyway and went to Starbucks for the only thing I could describe as a decent coffee. One thing I am already looking forward to is a flat white!!!!! I will have to wait!! I am prepared to wait.!!!

On the way down to Carlsbad we got on a toll road.  Unlike Europe they let you drive on it then expect you to pay for it retrospectively.

Aha here lieth the problem last time we were in the states we were stung and got a $100 forfeit for not paying the bill. No one - the company collecting the toll, the hire car company or anyone else, would give you any info on how to pay. Alamo car rental were awesome but they dont even give you advice that really Pi$$3d me off.

Anyway all paid on line eventually we got from Carlsbad to LAX in great time with no delays.

 We have eaten in nearly every food shop in LAX and Cody as usual has half of it over his face.

We are now in the good part of LAX flying Lufthansa to Frankfurt where Cody predictably wants a frankfurter.   Anyway after a short stop over in Frankfurt we fly to Helsinki to be picked up by the lovely Virva.  So signing off for now until we arrive in Finland.
