I'm going to Finland

I'm going to Turku Tuesday through Saturday of the coming week for business. Is there anything that is a "must-see" there I should know about? Any great restaurants? Will I find hoards of happy people swarming about (as Tuomas's pictures are leading me to believe)? Will I freeze to death? My web searching tells me there's the Turku castle, an archeological and contemporary art complex, and a cathedral. I won't have a car, but I'll be with some Norwegians who may have one.

Temps are mid 20s (F) during the day, down to single-digits at night, so I'd rather be going in the summer, but I guess I can take it for a few days. I was in Norway in April and it was pretty nice, though overcast or dizzley most of the time.

x-post: I'll try a sauna at the hotel this time. They had one in the hotel in Norway but I never tried it.

make sure you find the co-ed saunas, though.

Find out where these dudes live and engage in a conversation about dragons and shit. They'll know all sorts of elven lore.
