Our second day started bright and early as we started exploring Helsinki on foot soon after waking up and eating breakfast. The cool breeze in the morning and lower temperatures made for ideal walking conditions; although, I'm sure Audrey would argue that point, as prefers warmer weather whereas I'm in my element when temperatures are hovering around twenty degrees of less ;)
We couldn't help but notice how quiet and empty the streets were this early in the morning. We could sometimes go an entire block or two with seeing a single other person. On our way to visit Uspenski Orthodox Cathedral, we noticed a park dedicated for dogs and their owners; naturally, as pet lovers, we went to check it out but the dogs weren't as pleased by our presence. This distinct landmark cathedral offers a fantastic vantage point overlooking downtown Helsinki.
From the cathedral we continued to the main train station where we would be meeting one of Audrey's Canadian friends from back home who is studying nursing in Finland. Along the way we walked by several stores selling Finnish souvenirs; several groups of performers entertained pedestrians including a a group busking.
Soon after meeting Audrey's friend, our focus shifted towards Finnish cuisine. Specifically we wanted to try eating Finnish Reindeer meatballs. As we approached Market Square, we noticed a change in atmosphere much different from the quiet neighborhood nearby our hotel. Finnish vendors were selling everything from trinkets to local delicacies. Meanwhile, a sea of people made their way up and down the rows gobbling up delectable delights, shopping and sitting down for coffee. Although the pace was definitely lively it was nowhere near as chaotic as some of the markets we've visited in Asia, such as Jonker Street Night Market in Malacca or the Shilin Market in Taipei.
How did the Reindeer meatballs taste? Well, they weren't nearly as distinct as they thought they would be. I have a lot of experience eating animal meat such as deer, elk and moose having grown up on Vancouver Island. I was expecting the Reindeer to have more of a pronounced and unique taste; however, it was rather nondescript, at least in the form of these meatballs, and I wouldn't have been surprised if somebody told me these were pork or chicken balls. I'm hoping to soon try Reindeer steak which I think may have more of a unique flavor.
Finally, we ended up coming back to Market Square for dinner where we ended up having the same thing; except this time we replaced the Reindeer meatballs with grilled salmon. If I had to choose between the two, the salmon would win hands down. I'm a huge salmon lover (it's probably one of my top 5 favorite foods) and this was grilled to perfection with each piece melting in my mouth.
Overall, our second day in Helsinki was very pleasant. Our plan is to do a bit of island hopping tomorrow along with a day trip to Tallinn, Estonia the following day. Although we don't actually have a lot of time left in Helsinki, I'm sure we'll make the most of it gormandizing on more salmon and hopefully some reindeer steak:

Visit Helsinki #1 Kauppatori Market Square & Old Market Hall
The Market Square (Kauppatori in Finnish, Salutorget in Swedish) is a central square in Helsinki, Finland, and one of the most famous market places and tourist attractions in the city.
Located in the South Harbour at the very beginning of the Esplanade Park, the Market Square is Helsinki's most international and famous market. The booths here sell traditional market foods and treats, as well as handicrafts and souvenirs. There is also a heated café tent where you can comfortably sip steaming hot coffee even on the coldest days in winter.
The Market Square is located near the centre of Helsinki, at the eastern end of Esplanadi and bordering the Baltic Sea to the south and Katajanokka to the east. The Helsinki City Transport maintains an all-year-round ferry link from the Market Square to Suomenlinna, and in the summer there are also private companies providing ferry cruises, both to Suomenlinna and other nearby islands.
From spring to autumn, the Market Square is bustling with activity with vendors selling fresh Finnish food and souvenirs. There are also many outdoor cafés at the square. Some cafés also provide meat pastries (lihapiirakka in Finnish), and one advertises their pastries as being the best in the Market Square… in Helsinki… in Finland!
The height of the square's popularity is in early October when the annual Helsinki herring market (silakkamarkkinat in Finnish) begins.
A long tradition at the Market Square is a display of old American cars on the first Friday of every month. Any motorist with an interest in old American cars can take part in this display. How the tradition originally started is unclear.
