Gulf of Finland Route Map
A remote corner of a small sea
full of hustle and bustle
The same guys jumping the queue
every spring on the road to summer camp
In the autumn the search is on
for the river that smells like home
But some routes
remain a mystery...
...especially at Christmas
Merry Christmas and
a Happy Gulf of Finland Year 2014!
40 000 ships each year
