Those funny monkeys!


So, the Shanghai World Expo is really near! Less than a month to the opening ceremony, which is going to be fabulous, no doubt about it.

I was cruising the web the other day when I came accross this utterly hilarious bit of Finnish trivia, told by monkeys!! Surely now no-one can claim that Finns take themselves too seriously? Check it out for your self.

About the writer

Havis Amanda National symbol, City of Helsinki Havis Amanda
Havis Amanda is one of Vallgren's Parisian Art Nouveau works. She is a mermaid who stands on seaweed as she rises from the water, with four fish spouting water at her feet and surrounded by four sea lions. She is depicted leaning backwards as if to say goodbye to her element. Vallgren's intention was to symbolize the rebirth of Helsinki.
