And remember... you're in Finland, so you don't need to worry about getting mugged. PS. I figured out that no one actually scans their cards...no idea what the deal is, but apparently you are judged by the locals if you scan your card. Don't scan your card. It's not cool.

Continuing my exploration of Helsinki, I accidentally ended up here at Sörnäisten because I saw a…read moretrain in the Hakaniemi metro station and jumped on it. Oops, wrong direction. U-turns at Sörnäinen are easy, just cross over. The station is underground. On the M1/M2 line, Sörnäisten is between Hakaniemi and Kalasatama.

There were some complimentary snacks but pretty ordinary: crackers, tea and coffee, veggies with a dip for more healthful fare. That was about it. None of it tempted me for a second. As for the prospect of sitting in the cafeteria-style chairs for two hours, I eventually abandoned this lounge and found a more comfortable location in another part of the ship. Skip Comfort Class is my advice.
