Christmas: Home for the Holidays

This was yesterday, but for some reason my automatic publisher went off.
Today is the day i have been waiting for so long, we are traveling to Finland.

We will be making stop at Paris airport CDG and from there we will take our plane to Helsinki. I love the feeling when we land to Helsinki-Vantaa airport you see all the nature of Finland and snow. Last time i spend Christmas at home was 3 years ago, it has been too long, but now i will enjoy every moment i get to spend at home.
