A popular way in Finland to spend a weekend, not least because of the tax-free booze. Conversely, Swedes often use the same boats for cruises to Finland.4. Finnish musicians most popular in the '70s.5. Every Finnish town has at least one grill kiosk (or lit. 'wiener kiosk') selling cheap grub, and they have long lines especially when the bars close in the weekend.6. Lit. 'car markets', as previously people mostly walked to small local grocery stores.7.
