Dateline: 08:35 07 Sep 1996
Location: Stockholm-Helsinki, m/s Isabella
The end is nigh! 25 minutes until we dock in
Helsinki and passengers start spurting out. Of course, odds are that
the friendly people at Customs will pick on me again, but no matter.
And right now, I am nearly entirely glad that this is over: vacationing
is a hard job and too much of it leads to nervous breakdown. Yet
it has been a memorable trip: not in this lifetime shall I forget places
like Skocjan. Even this, essentially a cursory examination, has convinced
me that there are many places -- Amsterdam, Wien, Kobenhavn, Praha and
above all Slovenia -- that are worth a closer look.
But the ship is docking now and I must go. 'Till we meet again!
The day's budget
