Why Savonlinna? The only and one excellent reason is that it is famous for its castle of St. Olaf’s Castle. My cruising is continuing. There are pictures from islands and from the dock of Savonlinna. There are also a couple of photos in the sauna on the lake. Joke: “Every man must have a sauna on the lake”.

En español:

¿Por qué Savonlinna? La razón por la excelente y sólo uno es que es famosa por su castillo de Olavinlinna. Mi crucero sigue su curso. Hay fotos de las islas y del astillero de Savonlinna. También hay un par de fotos de la sauna en el lago. Broma: “Cada hombre tiene que tener una sauna en el lago”.

En francais:

Pourquoi Savonlinna? La seule et une excellente raison, c’est qu’elle est célèbre pour son château d’ Olavinlinna. Mon croisière continue. Il ya des images des îles et du chantier naval de Savonlinna. Il ya aussi quelques photos de sauna sur le lac. Blague: “Chaque homme doit avoir un sauna sur le lac”.

Precioso reportaje, lleno de color y belleza, como siempre. Lo de la sauna en el lago lo he visto por televisión y me entra un frío enorme cada vez que lo veo, ¿tu también lo practicas?, eso de meterse en el agua congelada después de la sauna……………., besos

  I am very happy that You liked my cruise photos. BTW, the ship Punkaharju is built already in 1905.

I really like these rocky islands and the colorful boats that sail around them. I would enjoy cruising in this area as well. That sauna on the lake is pretty special.

  Thank You for Your comment. I have to confess that Sauna on the lake was new to me.

Love the rocks-spent much of my teenage years sunning on those kind of rocks at my grandfather’s cottage. Interesting to see the tug boats too- is this fresh water lake or ocean?Like the cruise boat, thanks for taking me on the tour.it was a pleasant ride.

- Hello Janeche.
  
  How nice it was to read that this scenery raised memories in Your mind. Tug boats and others are in the dock of Savonlinna. Earlier small boats were made there as reparations also. This is fresh water area; it is a part of huge lake area called Saimaa which connects many small towns.
  
  Have a lovely week-end.

What a beautiful part of your country! The forests right down to the water are fascinating and the trees on the small islands too! I will think a lot about some of those boats too, especially the ones that look as though they were made for harsh weather. How wonderful it would be to weather a storm in one of them!

- Hi Terry.
  
  This part of Finland is indeed beautiful with its lakes. It is one of my favorite parts in Finland. Even when driving by car, one can see lakes glimmering water here and there. Also it is full with history which culmination is the medieval castle in Savonlinna small town. This lake Saimaa can be reached from everywhere by water by passing thru some canals. I am glad that You liked my post and photos.
  
  Happy week-end!

A very beautiful area. It reminds me a bit of northern Minnesota. LOVE the boat images. Great work.

  Thank You commenting. I believe because many Finns have moved to Minnesota and it might be due to many similarities of these regions.
  
  Have a wonderful Sunday!

- Hello Davinder.
  
  Thank You. Did You know that those steamships cruising on our lakes are old? The oldest one is called SS Tarjanne and everyone can make cruises on it in Tampere. SS Tarjanne was built in 1908. Personally I love these old steam ships very much. They are real “old-timers”.
  
  Thank You for Your interest to my post and leaving Your comment.
  
  Happy Thursday!

Que j’aime ces petits port aux bateaux très colorés, avec parfois d’étranges habitations flottantes !
Merci Matti pour cette belle croisière.

  Merci d’avoir faite une commentaire. Le port de Savonlinna est vraiment très coloré et plein d’étranges “maisons” flottantes. Je suis content que tu aime cet endroit, qui a une place dans mon cœur.
  
  Bises.
