Quirky start to Finland

Today I flew from stylish Sweden to what, on first impressions, felt like funky Finland.

The flight from Stockholm to Helsinki was less than an hour per favour of a strong tail wind.  I settled into my airbnb and then quickly ducked out to the local supermarket to buy breakfast provisions. 

What I hadn't expected was this funky little robot-like entity outside the main door of the shop.

Upon enquiring I discover it is in fact a little remote controlled refrigerated delivery vehicle.  Order your groceries online, supply your address and guess what ?  This piece of magic will deliver them to your door.  

I've been reliably informed that sometimes they get stuck en route and random passers-by are encouraged to read the illuminated distress message and gently  put them back on track and away it goes again.

I haven't seen one beetling along a footpath near me yet, but be assured I'm on the lookout !
