näkeminen selkeys/seeing with clarity

Clear winter night in Helsinki

On occasion, I took the overnight ferry from Stockholm to Helsinki, wandered the city and got back on the boat for the return.  When you are 6,000 miles from home and in the dead of a Scandinavian winter it seems clearly like the thing to do.

I liked Helsinki a lot; specially in the winter.  Darkness at 3pm, crunchy snow, chocolate and coffee everywhere, tea in glasses not cups...always an adventure. Sibelius piping in reverently in every possible place.  My mind's eye ...  näkeminen selkeys.
