A flyover for animals!!!
佢就係俾野生動物行嘅天橋啦！
I believe all of you know what animal migration is.
相信大家睇過動物大遷徙都知道，

As APe told me that a friend of his doesn't want his/ her daughter's photos be posted on the Internet,
As APe told me that a friend of his doesn't want his/ her daughter's photos be posted on the Internet,
由於之前芬蘭猴同我話佢嘅朋友唔想我刊登有佢個女D相，
I had decided not to post any photos with Finnish people that I know!

I truly believe that kids should not receive formal education until after they are 6 years old.

我真心覺得小孩子未到六歲前都應該係玩吃拉同睡。
Then,
之後，
Mikko and Petra brought the two little monkeys and us to the city centre.

Now, I know that Turku used to be the Finnish capital.

Until Russia took over Finland,

直到俾俄羅斯統治，
They thought that the capital was too close geographically to Sweden,

超攪笑:）
Then we went to a small park with climbing facilities, sand pits, slides, swings and toboggan, etc.,
之後我哋就去咗有馬騮架，沙池，千秋，滑梯，滑道等等嘅小公園玩，
We brought sunshine to Turku as it was raining cats and dogs in Turku right before we came!
早兩日呢度重落緊大雨，但我同芬蘭猴帶咗陽光嚟！
I was lying on this cradle like thingy, it was so so relaxing!
我瞓咗係一個搖籃度⋯好舒服！
