May 12: Porvoo cathedral

After checking out the library, we continued through some more of the old town and went into the cathedral again, as the service we had been wary of disturbing before was over by then.

The sun looks almost overhead by now. Not bad.

0602

Nice bangs.

0607

Roundhouse.

0611

Tall barn is tall.

0613

A fancy arched carriageway.

0618

Midlife crisis gangster car. Pretty sweet.

0620

The nave and apse of the cathedral.

0621

The pews are either painted with some industrial-strength paint or are made of plastic, or both.

0623

Lovely vaults, sort of flowerlike.

0626

Quite the pulpit.

0628

More pews.

0632

The peak of the apse vault looks like maybe it was scorched a little in the roof fire.

0633

Quite the organ.

0636

Really nice inlays in maybe the church plaza.

0638

Slope down...

0640

...slope up.

0641

In a nearby square there was some kind of medieval or Renaissance performance getting going.

0644

We stopped at a patisserie there and I got this scrumptious bilberry thing.

0645

More cobbles and claps.

0647

Birdy drama sky.

0648

The lower sign means "old-fashioned paint shop" but it also sounds like a restaurant and inside it looks like a gift shop ????

0649

Another yard peek.

0652

Some doily furniture.

0663

Porvoo Jugend.
