The Finns Love Their Sauna

June 6, 2016: No doubt about it — Finland is the sauna capitol of the world — mostly indoors (the TC, through some clever maneuvering, was able to enjoy a full sauna in his Radisson Blu hotel room), with some outdoor sauna’s as part of wilderness lodges. Now, something sauna new in Helsinki — the country’s first public outdoor sauna — in a marina with stairs into the nearby ocean to cool off.  Avid sauna users in Finland believe the sauna “is an essential place for cleansing and purifying minds and bodies.”  And to help with the “cleansing process,” no cell phones allowed.  Now that’s pure happiness!
