Finland Day 11 – Design Sunday

With only a relegation round game played Sunday we decided to take a day off from the tournament and see more of Helsinki.
Incidentally, Switzerland beat Belarus in game 2 of a best-of-three relegation round, so the Swiss stay up in next years WJC while Belarus moves down, to be replaced by Latvia.

For us, we started off the day at the Design Museum in Helsinki. We enjoyed our visit learning the history of design in Finland and viewing the other exhibits. Afterwards we did a little shopping, but did not pick up much. Then we dined at Zetor to enjoy some authentic Finnish food. The highlight of the meal was trying reindeer, which was quite good prepared with mashed potatoes and lingonberries.

  
Following dinner we made our way back to our apartment and enjoyed a relaxing evening.

All the big games of the tournament are left to come, plus our side trip to Iceland, so we need to keep rested!
