173. We welcome you to Salmonella Island. (But if look it up, it's more commonly known as Suomenlinna Island or Sveaborg.) This fortress just off the shore of Helsinki was built during Sweden reign to protect Scandinavia from nosy Russia. We explored the tunnels, the bunkers and storage units and tried to imagine its use back in the day but instead we half expected hobbits with hairy feet to start running around because this place looked just like JRR's Shire.
