SIMO

by ATLC - last update: Sep 8, 2002

On the way to Rovaniemi from Oulu

Our first coffee stop. We saw a sign on the road but the coffee stop was a few kilometres still. But it was worh it!
We ended up on de border of the Botnia Strait, a beautiful old wooden vicarage (100 years old), currently a restaurant.
The village Simo was worth a look.

The church

With a separate bell tower (see the picture above).
The graveyard is well maintained.

House

 The Finns do love their coffee! A lot of the Finns I've met drink it very strong - I'm sure it was good here.
